Old coop comes down at last

Post by Tony22 »

After living here for 6 years we have finally knocked the old coop down. It was quite a big unit 6m x 3m. All plumbed in with header tank etc, it was approx 60 yrs old

Not sure TBH, I am planning on fencing of an area appx 120msq. But I am undecided about how to house the birds, I have a smallish coop which I built myself and also a converted playhouse at the moment. I really like the idea of one big coop, the one in the photo must of housed quite a few birds in its time.

Yes it did, it was used to store some of our stuff while I built a garage, I think I repaired the roof about four times.
