Chicken Coop Inspiration

When my husband and I were thinking of building our own chicken coop, we looked at images all across the web for inspiration. We finally decided to upcycle an old horse trailer and turn it into a chicken coop.

We thought it would save us a ton of money, basically already having a frame by using the horse trailer. It ended up being way more money than either of us thought it would be in the end but totally worth it at the same time. I’ll have to get some better pictures soon. It looks a little different than this now. I’m also working on updating the video too. You can see the progress in images in this video.

Lady Lee built a fairly large chicken coop out of pallets! Go on over to see just how she did it!

A frame are pretty simple to make. I do suggest painting any bare wood as it will warp and wear with the weather…

This is super cute. All that wood though. Might cost quite a bit to make. Especially, with wood prices being so high these days.

Sweet little coop in the winter.
