Description

Learn how to build a back yard chicken coop and get hand's on experience to take home and build your own! During this workshop we will be building a hutch-style chicken coop which will provide the animals adequate shelter from the elements and the determined efforts of most predators. In our urban/suburban environment, raccoons and dogs are the largest threats to chickens and other fowl.
