The Easiest to Build
February 27th, 2010 . by adminOne of the top advantages of portable chicken coops is that they are very easy to build. The basic portable chicken coop design consists only of a roof and four walls. Some have only three sides converging at the top, like the shape of a three-sided pyramid. If you live in an area where it seldom rains, your portable chicken coops may not even have to have a roof cover, thus allowing your chickens to bask in the sunshine. All you need for these types of portable chicken coops are the wood or metal frames, and the chicken wire or bamboo sticks to make the walls.
