1. Great job building the coup! I think you are going to find in the next few weeks going with a a solid floor was a bit of a miss calculation. Or when the time comes to clean the floor of the chicken house. Many go with a wire mesh floor, much easier to hit it with a hose and a brush.

2. Good luck on your plans, dreams and future projects. I have subscribed and been watching your travels and boat restoration for years, but I’m a boater and water guy and your new direction isn’t for me. I might check back in a few months, but for now live your best life.

3. Dropping the wall of the nesting box instead of lifting the roof gives better access for cleaning, hides the hinges under the overhang, plus the birds aren't as frightened when you open it. looking awesome.

4. A 8" piece of vinyl cloth the width of the coup. and a single saw cut 2" parallell to the hinge top fit the vinyl thru the saw cut and pull the tab up inside. Then attach to the inner wall. Roll the inside tab and nail to the wall. The vinyl on the outside hangs down completely drying in the hinge joint. Simple and elegent solution to dry boxes. Be well

5. You need an impact driver to put those screws in SOOO much easier BROOO Dewalt makes a good one

6. Matt and Kristen's ENGLISH is very good! WHY? Because English is my second language (first language is Spanish) and I can Understand them very well even without subtitles! Congratulations on that and on your content, which is interesting, informative, and entertaining (not boring!). 😊 Also, I would like to know if you are in EL YUNQUE, in Puerto Rico's mountains? Thank you. Nov. 7, 2023

7. Great video! The two of you are growing right along with those chickens and that iguana😊😊. All life is interconnected.

8. You could add a gutter from roof with bamboo drainage down the hill side. Would help with chicken run area. Food for thought

9. It’s a chicken pen it don’t have to be perfect

10. Love you two. Matt be carful moving stuff your back is very important we think we’re supper human but after two surgeries I found out want many people told me not to do with my lifting. Your life’s look amazing

11. I love love love the chicken coop. The color turned out perfect. I had silkies. They are the sweetest chickens!

12. Groovy episode.. You guys are quite the craftsmen.

13. Why don't you extend the roof a little to cover the nest boxes? This would save all the caulking? Looks good though

14. To make the chicken coop easier to move,
    Move the wheels from the back of the coop toward the front of the coop like through the front legs of the hen house instead of the back legs.
    That way the whole coup uses the wheels as a fulcrum kinda like a rickshaw.
    Makes it much more maneoverable too.

15. I hope that you plan on going a few inches underground with either wood or mesh so that no predator can dig its way into the coop. It happened to us once with a marten that hurt one of our hens so badly that we had to put her out of her misery and it was heartbreaking. We were trying to give our hens the best life possible, they ate like queens, even after they stopped laying eggs. After this incident, we left a couple of box traps in the chicken coop and managed to catch the marten after a few days. We released it in the forest and never had marten problems again after that. When one of our hens died (which happened a couple of times over the better part of a decade), we would replace her so that the remaining hen(s) always had at least one companion. We were a bit too soft to have hens, so we decided to give up after the third death and the remaining hen went to live with many other hens and a rooster at a friend's coop. It was really nice to get fresh eggs every morning. They dined on food scraps, insects they'd catch in their big yard, worms from the garden and an unlimited supply of grain which they didn't have to touch much since they were happier with the other food. Opening the coop's door at first light, cleaning inside of the coop as they ate, fetching the eggs around 11 AM, closing it in the evening after they would call it a day and then cleaning outside of the coop could be a bit of a chore some days, but those hens were really cool and it was nice to see how they trusted us. Watch out for mites, these buggers were quite difficult to get rid of when they infested the coop once.

16. I hope the wood on the chicken coupe is termite treated,

17. Make sure no gap in between froom ground to the woods so no snake come in specialy that friend of yours liitle dudes iguana it will eat all eggs and checks.

18. Good job on the chicken coop. I like the lights!! Let’s hope the predators don’t think it is a candlelight dinner😮😮

19. Have you ever considered making a water wheel driven power station ? With the stream on your property there is endless free power,just a thought.
