- Hello Everyone. Roxane and I are almost finished with the coop build. But in CRC fashion, we didn't measure correct for the materials we needed LOL. That ended up putting us back a day on the build. The coop is coming out so nice though. Pretty soon, we will be able to hear the clucks and chirps from little birds in the coop. We are both very excited! Thank you for being here with us, we appreciate you all! Enjoy.

recommend vinyl sheet for the floor in the coop so the wood doesn't absorb any urine/odor - help protect the lifespan of the deck and keep it easy to sweep/clean out when adding to compost.
We did and it works. Great suggestion. 👍
I suggested linoleum earlier too, but I think I meant vinyl. Lol
Agree! We have that as well
They put sealant on the floor of the coop
@@Donna_Bug yes they did, but I heard that chicken poop was pretty acidic. I wonder if the sealant will hold off the acidity or absorb it.
We built a smaller version/similar style coop for our chickens. It works great! Last year we bought a Run Chicken battery operated chicken door and it’s awesome! I highly recommend it. It’s metal and you can set it to open when you want it to or it’s preset to open 20 minutes after dawn and close 20 minutes after dusk.
Looks great! I would second the suggestion you put a single vinyl sheet on the floor to make it easier to clean!
When you do the fencing dig it into the ground and bury about 6 inches into the ground. Chickens love to excavate and you will have better time keeping critters out if you do this. Just an FYI having chickens before.
HER IS A SMART PUPPY is no want to lay in the dirt!!!!!
I had me a cat that looked like yours for 18 years. He loved being out side. And we let him be outside being he was fixed. We had him for 18yrs. one of the best cats we ever had...
Midnight says : Mom, maybe the mice are out.
🐈⬛ yummmm
Looking good guys!
Cheap vinyl flooring would be a good addition. Easy floor clean up, urine won’t soak into the wood floor.
Pretty cool 😎.... we used to have everything in our house when I was growing up, mom planted all our fruits and vegetables, chicken and ducks, Beas and of course our adorable dogs and cats, and growing up I started learning and helping mom, the best time of my life...when I see your doing I fly back in time... the best of all is that we also were scouts, the whole family and it all really made it all feel that there is nothing better than doing it. Dad was also we us when free from his military work. It was good because there was no war in the military life, but defense against drug and foreign illegal stealing ... so dad at home was a normal thing. My younger brother started getting involved since very little also....very important for our kids, specially when living in such a condition...nature...always good learning with your many doing 🥰
What I think ! it's stinky awesome the chickens going to lay so many eggs 🥚 those chickens going to shake a tail feathers 🪶 waiting for 8:00 for live chat 😀
I don’t know anything about building or chickens (except fried) but I can stand on the sideline and cheer you on and pray for you. You are doing a great job.
Here is a thought about the open bottom of the chicken coop. The chickens will go under the coop and lay eggs that if you dont find, they will rot and nothing smells quite like a rotten egg. Most coops go to the ground. Skirting would be a easy fix. Good work you two, really enjoy your channel and wish you blessings.
Chicken Little would be proud to call your coop home!! Lol It looks great, just a couple things to add, an automatic door, a vinyl floor covering to help protect the floor, and automatic water/feed dispensers. Oh, and chickens! Hahaha Love what you're doing ❤️
I really like the barn red color of the coop!
Coop is looking good! Don't forget the ramp for the chickens!
I heard they're putting in an escalator or elevator. First floor Henhouse.
You're slowly getting there.
Before too long you won't recognise the place, which is a good thing. You've done a huge amount of work in a relatively short space of time.
The coop looks good you two work good together. And are great people.
The CRC Chicken Coop is awesome! Your feathered family is going to love it! 🐓
That’s more like a little Condo them chicks really gonna be Struttin around 🤪
make sure when you install that freeze proof hydrant, that you cut both ends out of a 4 gallon bucket. Put it over the faucet and fill with gravel. Then drive metal poles around it so the faucet does not move when using it. Ask me how I know. We have had to replace ours about every 5 years. Till we made it so it does not move. It can break your seal loose on the pipe that supplies water to it AND it can also break the actual faucet. Also, make the nest with doors so you can gather eggs from the outside. IT makes things much easier.
Great Job on the chicken coop. Name it .. Rooster Bullets Coop or Cluck U. Cabin. LOL
If you plant hanging baskets of mint around your coop it will detour rodent's from getting in also plant lavender around the bottom of coop for the same reason. Chickens love both and it's good for their immune system as well. Love your coop.
Don't forget to make a ramp for the chickens can go up n down !! Chicken coop looks really awesome, love that you are keeping the color scheme all the same. Looks like a mini compound!!
You guys did an awesome job building the coop!! That trim really makes it pop! Anthony, I truly appreciate your Positivity & easy going outlook when there's a hiccup in the project you're doing, very very refreshing!!!!!
Good morning Roxanne and Anthony 💕💕
I absolutely love watching your channel and all the very thought out projects y’all do. Wyatt is growing into a fine young man. Getting to play safely outdoors with his cousins. I know y’all research everything on your projects so don’t let anyone tell you that your doing them wrong. Just do them you!!
Interested in what you have have planned for a varmint-proof pen. Also, you might want to (if you haven't already) check out automatic Chicken Door openers on Amazon. That way they get locked in at night and released out in the morning without you guys having to go out to the coop morning and night. Additional point: Nesting/laying boxes are best attached to the outside (but opening inwards for the birds) and with a lift up roof for gathering the eggs.
Check out Carolina Coop - they recommend nest box door on the side, like truck bet tail gate, not lift-up roof because (1) not good for the chickens and (2) the hinge on lift up nest box door could leak in rain or snow. I just built my coop in their style myself and the door style they recommend is easy to build, easy to access and clean from outside, and doubles as shelf to put egg basket on while collecting eggs.
Anthony, when you install your frost proof faucet be sure and put rock under the connection to the water source underground so the water can drain out of the vertical pipe when you shut it off AND when you connect a hose to it during freezing weather disconnect the hose when not in use. The hose can prevent water from draining out of the faucet pipe allowing it to freeze and burst.
I love that you build and truly finish each building project and it always looks attractive. No thrown together places on your land!
A very beautiful Coop. I hope you can keep the Bears out, that is if there are Bears in your area. I think your Chicken will be very happy. What will you use on the floor underneath the Hay. Something you can wash off would be good. I live the little Windows and the tiny door. They will definitely be safe from small animals.
You work so quickly. Great job. Have a good weekend
It looks like a cubby house for Wyatt, don’t tell him I said this cause he might actually ask for one….done a great job today by the way.💖💖🇦🇺
You have sooo many homestead friends to give you input! You are doing great!👍
That's a pretty fancy chicken house.....you are going to have some high class chickens !!!!!!
Taj Mahal of a "chicken coop"....chickas will be happy, happy, happy!
I hope you're building the chickens a deck on the front of the Chicken Palace as they will need somewhere to get a bit of R&R after laying loads of eggs for you. Lol
I think the chicken's will be happy with it. Looks really neat and goes with the other sheds. You do good work. GG
Coop de Ville Run. Coopers. The Chicken coop turned out very nice. Your girls will love it.
Roxanne, the butterfly was telling you to plant him a butter fly garden. With the white trim on the chicken coop it looks like a little cottage. It would be super cute to have a white picket fence over the wire one at least in the front of it. I weather vane for the top with a rooster on it would be cute too. So much y'all could do with the way you made it. peace y'all
The coop looks great, don't forget a roost in the coop for them to get on.
Great chicken coop, looks fantastic.
You guys make such a great team.
Anthony, you are such a perfectionist, it really pays off.
Oh what a great job on chicken house, that would be so cute with a fake stove pipe on roof. Cute Cute
🙋🏼♀️🕊. Hi there folks🦋. The great getting the chicken coop nice job .your a good team couple 💕It might be a good idea to put a water catchment system. Off of the coop. You can always use it in the garden etc etc. try to make sure snakes 🐍 and rats can’t get in. They can do a lot of damage….blessings to you and your family 🕊🕊🕊🕊 nana Pell. 🙋🏼♀️
I like that color paint on the chicken coop.
The chicken coop is looking good I can't wait to see your chickens. Thanks for sharing. God Bless you and your family
Roots heaven, all you need now is boxes for Lane and you just need a roosting pole for them to sleep on at night long as it's not too far off the ground on either side you'll be fine
That is the nicest chicken coop I’ve ever seen. Some day it will probably be a shed or playhouse for the granddaughter. That’s what my dad did with his chicken coop You built it to last a long time Thanks for great entertainment 🥰
That is one good looking chicken coop. Lucky birds😀
The chickens are gonna be very happy and comfy in there house awesome!
CRC, The new Coop is looking great...when I built my coop, I also was puzzled by building nesting boxes...so I took 5- 2 gal buckets, cut the bottoms 1/2 off, screwed them to the wall with the bottoms facing out and the chickens loved them...they produced plenty and the buckets save some $$...Cheers from Maine.
that's smart
Yup, remember wooden blueberry boxes? They worked well too....lol lol...another Mainer!
Chicken Castle Coop. Design and paint color is so cute☺...?Have you thought about covering the door in a "Screen" material for both side of the door. The door frame alone, made the Chicken Castle Coop🤗 door look interesting.💜
Chicken palace that looks so good guys great work.❤️❤️🇦🇺🇦🇺👍👍🥰🥰
You are building one fancy Chicken Palace. Nice...very nice.
Looks like I'm going to be sleeping in the chicken coup while David gets the Thunder Dome, lol. It's looking good you guys. Stay safe on the 41.36
LOL 🤣😂🤣
You can put hinges on bottom of little door so it becomes a ramp for the chickens when you open it. 🐔🐥
Hey that looks great!! yess the chickens will be happy in their Chicken Palace.😀 Don't forget the ramp like thingy for the chickens.
Anthony, Anthony, Anthony, remember to nail/screw on the ridge not the gully of the roofing iron, water lays in the gully so roof will leak! Wife thinks you should add a deck so the chickens can sun bath....lol. Kiwi Dave New Zealand.
Looking good! I laughed at the chicken Taj Mahal because we call our lil pig barn the Taj Mahog lol. I always appreciate how much thought you put into your projects. Sending high fives from western Arkansas!
Dawns here ☀️
I love the view of mountains. And I enjoy watching the build. I have to go back and look at the old builds. Awesome 👍👍👍
Great looking Chicken 🐓 House 🏠Ant And Roxs
How bout the Chick Motel!!! Great job you guys. You are definitely gettin' it!!!!!!!!
SMOKEY MOUNTAIN LYLA recommends a nice ramp with wood slats every 6 inches going down the ramp. Also use two-way hindges on the coop swing door for the chickens. We did this from where I was originally from....Adirondak Mountains! Northern New York, in St. Lawrence County!
I love the look of the chicken coop. Dont forget roosts
I would have a plug in for electricity so winter heat lamps or other can be hooked up.... I would build the egg boxes inside and put the top to them on a steep angle so they can't roost on it and crap all over it... make access doors on the outside to each box with hooks so they don't have a way out there. Straw in nesting boxes as they eat the grass as fast as you put it in. They need grass for food as well and gravel for their craw as that is their teeth.
Beautiful cat.
Hello Rox and Ant, keep rolling those videos out. Have a great day!
Needing to get more tin not a problem. You will need some for the second well house too. Considering you are making it predator-proof I would have made it the size of the automatic chicken doors. Opening in the AM & closing in the PM - nice if you get home late to have it closed after dusk automatically whether you choose battery, solar, or electric for the door. I went out to eat and my friend got me home late and the raccoon had gotten in the coop. He was chowing down outside on the one he got. In two years time he got 6 of the 7. The coop and the run was there in the rental when I moved in I didn't have the money to improve it. Then the owner wanted his daughter to move back in. Yes it was in a residential area.
Happy chickens, pampered chickens produce more eggs.
I love it, gives me some ideas.
Where are they going to lay their eggs ? Oh yea the ramp ! Sure looking good though . You do great work...I guess we don't have patience when you both know what to do . we're in a hurry to see the finish work before time LOL!
That is one good looking chicken coop i.be so glad to see them running around and the money.u will save on all them eggs so cool
O wow 😊. Spiffy looking chicken coop u guys👍👏👏👏🇿🇦
the auto open close door for chi kens to come in and out are nice to have as well saving yous having to open and close door
That is one fancy chicken coop, job well done.
Lookin' good! Can't wait to see how you do the nesting boxes. FYI: Morgan on Gold Shaw Farm put cheap linoleum on the floor of his duck house for easier clean out & likes it. Are we going to hear chirping soon?
I agree about the lino
The vinyl is a great idea.
I always hated cleaning coops , stalls, etc. when I lived on a farm. Anything to make a job easier I say
Thanks for the tip!
Good glad you got that freeze proof hydrant it will be so nice in the winter.
chicken coop looks like the character from rugrats the cartoon the one with the specs. well done each video the place seems to get better and better
LOL Watching your video on TV right now, and have it here on laptop, while I am typing. Your coop looks wonderful. Leave your post 6 feet tall, that way you can put a net over the top to keep Hawks etc out. And trust me the Hawks will find you eventually. Also predator cloth 6 inches under ground, and wrap predator cloth around fences, so predators can't reach their little hands in there and rip your chickens heads off. Also lock them up at night. I am the only person within miles who have not any of her birds killed and wiped out. My coop is built like Fort Knox. I have pea gravel on their yard where coop is, and I just hose it down and keep it clean and no rats or mice. I do not let them out in freezing weather, but your coop will be fine, no drafts. Might add water for them in side. I don't for my goose or turkey, but chickens to me are more fragile. Plus my goose Roosevelt makes a hell of a mess, and I don't want that mess in my house. We had some old flooring that husband glued down. That makes it good for cleaning. Later ya might want to think of a vent. And you can put a fan in there, when super hot. Just some ideas. You should be proud of your coop. Roosevelt is 20 years old. My big old goose. Tom my turkey is around 9 now. I have one mean old tiny rooster named Popcorn. I have had my birds for years, and they are slowly passing from old age. I am 59 not getting anymore at this state of my life. :-) And I get this white powder from the feed store, you can just sprinkle it in your coop to keep insects out. And put it in their food. Humans can drink it and brush teeth with it. I forgot what it's called, but your birds will not get worms. I have never had any bird with worms. I hope this gives you some thoughts. Love the coop!!!!!!!!! Love you guys!!! Ohh and your windows, make sure that a predator can't poke through and get through windows. Not sure what my husband did, but he nailed something or did something. I am sure you will know. Good move on cutting the door .
I would trim it in black like the house it looks very nice and very neat great job
Great job 👍👍👍
That's so cute👍
Don't forget limbs or something for them to roost on up high. Thanks as always for sharing and god bless. Looking awesome
That turned out Amazing!! Good Job!! God Bless and have a Wonderful Weekend!! 👍💕😀⚘
Chicken coop looks great. White trim really makes it pop.
Shower liners work great for coop floors and come in 6x8. Makes clean up easy and the floor last longer.
Oh by the way !!I. LOVE WATCHING EVERYTHING You GUYS DO🐔🐔🐔🐔❤❤‼️‼️
Thank you Mildred 😊
Its looking very very nice. The nesting box would be easiest for yall if it was attached to the back of the building. Having a flip down front facing door on the nesting box keeps the stress down of your birds. Opening a flip top roof can freak them out and possible of them jumping out of box. Using a flush trim bit on a router is the best way to cut those window openings.

Move in ready B and B…start placing the ads! 😎👍
At least you didn't make it in the shape of a bucket!😂KFC on side!!😂
The Egg Shack ,lol. Looks great 👍
That’s a cute coop.❤️👍
Chicken coop looking good! Love the colors you choose for it.
I agree if you place a vinyl floor. It makes cleaning easier. Great job chicken coup looking good.
Yes that coop looks amazing. I could live there lol. Good job.
A Marriott chicken house ❣️❣️❣️good job ❣️❣️❣️
Great day of work. I love chickens. That was a fast job. See you on the next one.
If you can find a piece of linoleum flooring to put on the floor it will be sooooo much easier to clean out. Plus it will help keep the plywood floor in better shape
Hello Roxanne & Anthony...Have a great weekend 👍👍♥️♥️
Hello Coleen 😊 Have a great weekend as well.
The door and the window covers for the openings, you need raccoon proof latch. because those raccoons can work those latches and get into things , like totes for feed . If you put the hinges on the bottom of the little chicken door and make the door taller , you can make that a ramp for the chickens to walk up and get in the coop. Just Saying
Nice chicken coop
Awwww I love the chicken coop...you both are making your home soooo awesome..your place is going to be a home by end of summer you wait and see ..you have done sooo much already...I love watching your videos and I wait watching for them...ty for sharing..love you all...do you want an adopted granny...lol....huge hugs
