Hen Houses
Also known as chicken coop, this is a building where chickens are kept on a farm or homestead. The inside of
the hen house normally consists of several nesting boxes just large enough for the chickens to sit in while laying their
eggs, as well as perches for the chickens to use while sleeping. Often the floor of the hen house is covered with a
material, such as straw or wood chips, to contain the chicken waste, and to allow easier cleanup of the chicken coop.
Sometimes hen houses contain feeding and watering devices for the chickens, but these may also be kept outside of the
house.

Build a hen house

Many people, especially in rural areas, keep a small flock of chickens to provide themselves with eggs and meat. These
small coops are often surrounded by a fence, usually made with wire fencing to allow the chickens an area to roam,
peck, and hunt insects, to keep them contained. Contrary to popular use of the term, fencing known as "chicken wire" is
often too weak to pose a barrier to predators and is therefore seldom used to confine the birds. Wikipedia
On build a hen house you can read some information, visit links, and see pictures
that would help you if you are planning to build a hen house. After you have built it, you'll need some equipment, check some
samples of poultry house equipment you should have, depending on the
hen house you have built or bought. Feeders, drinkers, ventilation and cleaning systems are a must to maintain your hen
house (and its residents) to keep it in good condition. Plans of chicken coops can be
found here, as well as building and design tips.

Why? Because they blocked this site without proper reason and after about one year of negotiation still have not given a proper reason nor proper instructions of how to fix any problems
