What tools do you need? What features of poultry house design are important? How about nest boxes and ventilation? How much floor space do your hens need? All these questions and more are answered right here.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://yardideas.net/110/plans-for-a-chicken-coop-most-important-features/"><P>Be positive! - Provided you're prepared to make the effort, you almost certainly have the ability to build your own chicken coop. I had no wood working skills myself when building our first coop but it's still in use nearly 10 years on. Clear detailed coop construction plans and taking your time are the keys to your success.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://yardideas.net/110/plans-for-a-chicken-coop-most-important-features/"><P>As for tools, most poultry house designs require only basic equipment and none need to be electrical - although that would speed up your work. You'll only need a wood saw, a drill with bits and a screw driver. A jig saw or junior hacksaw will make cutting any curves easier. Of course you also need a tape measure and pencil.</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/402715EA-CBE6-4AD5-80F4-930876F22925/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content8.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
