    Hello Lori, sorry we missed your question. Eleven years ago we spent approx. $800-1000 on our coop. It is big enough for 3-5 hens if they are cooped up all day. If you have 5 hens that is 10 square feet/each in the run and that is enough. We love this coop. It is still as strong as the day it...

    Review by '' on item 'Farm Innovators "All-Seasons" Heated Plastic Poultry Fountain - 3 Gal. Model HPF-100, 100-Watt'

    We have experimented with several different types of heated waterers for winter usage, and this one has been about the most popular with us, so far. We've used it for 3 winters now, and is still working fine. Red plastic base has sun-faded a bit, but not cracked or deteriorated functionally...

    For an idea of what it cost us to build our coop, please refer to post #5 (from 2/15/14) above. In addition, some folks have sent us information on how much they spent while building their own version of the "WCC". We have seen quotes as low as $250, up to a high of $1,500. A lot seems to...

    Ducky Lover - If you're asking about the wooden portion of the roof (inside) I painted it before installing the roof. The top is metal roofing and I bought it at Home Depot in the green color.
