    Thank you for your video and tutorial. You and my husband are just about on the same page as far as building the coop . Ours on the other hand the corners are 4x4 ‘s and cemented in 22 inches into the ground. We live in Central Florida and have hurricanes to deal with . We are taking pictures as we go and will share . We are comparing notes . Thank you sooo much!!!

    oh yea definitely need to anchor for that, and I made them as light as possible due to the fact I make and sell these so it makes for easier loading and unloading, But I have told customers that they can add 4x4s inside or out and concrete them and bolt them to the main frame

    Thank you for the clear and easy instructions, I'm going to use this design when I build my coop! I might have to make a few adjustments for the weather in my area but I think it'll work great!

    Fantastic video though I would change the wood you used for the perches to a none treated wood tanillised or pressure treated wood can be toxic to your chickens should be OK for frame work but not for perches or nesting boxes just a thought great build though fantastic
