Throughout the years of keeping backyard chickens I have discovered 11 simple steps that any new chicken owner should take before building the chicken coop, and here they are...
Step 1: Consider Your Pet Chickens Space Keeping chickens in a in a jam-packed sardine-style crowded environment can harm your chickens and can often result in depression and even death. Your chicken coop must be roomy & spacious. You should allot at least 3 square feet for every bird. You'll also want to allow some space for the feeder and the waterer to go inside your chicken coop.
Step 2: Your Chicken Coops Location The number of chickens you are allowed to keep will depend on the location you live in i.e rural or urban. Usually in rural communities, the number of livestock you want can be unlimited but when in urban settings, raising chickens can have restrictions regarding its number.
Step 3: Decide on Your Chicken Breed What breed of chicken would you like to raise? If they weigh heavier, this will be an advantage because its weight will make it more difficult for them to fly away, if not a simple wire and post design pen can be used.
