Since moving to my little corner of the countryside I have thought it doesn't make much sense to have a couple of rural acres empty of any sort of animal life. So the obvious choice-being low maintenance and useful-keeping chickens. Backyard chickens have, recently, become trendy and the internet is a vast resource for information on their care.
They are a great source of healthy protein, compost and pest control.
Once the order for our little flock had been placed we began construction on the coop.
It's a lean to style structure with a chicken entrance on the front and a human entrance in the wall of the barn.
