Lol, my husband did a similar thing. I asked him to bring home eggs, he brought home 6 chicks, a week later I asked for more eggs again, he brought home 6 more chicks (2 ended up roosters, that's another story). Needless to say I bought my own eggs next time. Long story short, many months later, the girls give me eggs every day, and lots of fun chicken entertainment. I can't imagine my life without them now, I love them, and they are worth the daily effort needed. I am very grateful my husband "surprised" me. Hope your wife enjoys her chickens as much as I do.

To all the women out there with sweetie-pies like this guy, I hope you fully appreciate and respect what a truly talented, able and great provider you have. Not everyone is as lucky. God bless you all.

You seem to have every tool you'll ever need and the skill to use them! This build shows off more than any I've ever seen! Thank you so much for the lesson in building and we all knew your wife would LOVE it!

OMG ... dude what a freakin crazy build...best coop ever. Loved how the wife simply melted when introduced to the babies. Your attention to detail - so meticulous and the precision showed true craftsmanship. The time invested and joy building was impressive ... absolutely loved it. I want chix and a tricked out coop to house them 😆. Can't wait to see how you accommodate the external surrounding.

This is amazing!
This Video made me quite emotional, my family used to have chickens for many years. Trough living together with these great animals, planting our own vegetables and my Dad's hobby as a bee keeper we were able to live almost completely self-sufficient. In all those years my Dad did all these Jobs of maintainence and building things all by himself while also doing a full time Job as a Highway surveyor everyday. He got diagnosed with cancer in 2017, when he was 51 years old. Unfortunately, due to his therapy and operations, his body is no longer able to do physical work. We are very gratefull that he is fine so far and that he survived and is still with us ! Still there is always a bit of sadness left seeing him now not being able to do one of the things he enjoyed, being creative, making plans for new projects and starting to put them into reality. Thank you very much for bringing back some nice memories of the good old days! Your channel and projects are truly amazing!

FYI: if your chicken huddle by the door when it’s time to go in the coop. Like mine did. Worried if they’re going to get chocked by the run chicken door. Once the sun starts going down it’s to dark in the coop and they won’t go in because they can’t see. It took me a while but it was a simple fix. I put a light inside on a time to turn on at least an hour before the sun goes down and off an hour once it got dark.

This whole vlog made me smile 😃 From the story, to the build, to the clever name, I enjoyed it immensely! Obviously, you are an amazingly talented designer and builder, and it was so heartwarming to see the way your wife melted and played with the chickens. 🐔 🐓🐣🐥 May you have many happy chicken days!

Very nice looking chicken coop. But in my opinion to make it the ultimate chicken coop it needs to be setup for the deep litter method. Basically you just need it to have 12-18” of space at the bottom for the litter to build up over time. This is the best and easiest way to keep chickens in a stationary coop design. The way it works is you start with a layer of dry wood shavings to cover the floor of the coop. Once that gets soiled you just cover it with another layer of shavings. You continue doing this for as long as your coop has the space for the litter to build up. The beauty of this method is the carbon (wood shavings) absorb and offset the manure load eliminating any smell and composting at the same time. I used this method when I started out with chickens several years ago and went a full 18 months before cleaning the litter out of my coop that housed 20+ hens. You could open my hen house and not even smell a chicken. And if you did it was time for a layer of shavings. When cleaning out the litter it just smells like dirt. Great compost for the garden.
I would recommend cutting the bottom 12-18” off of you access door and making it a separate door that only opens when it is time to clean out the litter.
This also works outside in their run area. You might start with a nice grassy spot for them but they will quickly destroy all of that grass. Once that happens get some free wood chips from a local tree company or saw mill and put that down in their run areas. I put a heavy layer down to start with then just mix the manure in as it gets soiled. That way I didn’t need to have a pile of Woodchips somewhere. Use these methods and enjoy your backyard chickens without the smell of the chickens.
Good luck!! Thanks for sharing.

Beautiful coop! I’d love to see it with the run completed. I’ve wanted chickens for years and given today’s “egg-conomy, ” it might be time and I would LOVE a coop just like your Coup da Villa!

Another tip: leave at least a 1' overhang on the roof for ventilation and air flow, use 1/4 " caged chicken wire to cover the gaps in the rafters to keep snakes out.

Omg this is the prettiest coop I've ever seen! You did AMAZING! I have been researching chickens myself so I've been trying to find something i can build pretty easy. I wish i could build one like this. Thanks for sharing!!

[alexa]

Just finished the video, you did a beautiful job, love the coop and the name. Really loved how you explained everything, you make it look easy and doable. First video I've seen of yours, you have a new subscriber, can't wait to binge on your other content. Thank you!

[oldsoul]

If I had the hubby like you, not only I would've approved your efforts, I would expect from you more of such surprises, or asked you to help me with my own projects. You are great!!!

[shedroids]

Fantastic! You are such a master coop builder, what a lucky honey-bunny!😄 Great personality, liked on the video the minute you said you figured asking for forgiveness is better than asking for permission!😂🤣😂😂😂🤣😂, knew this was gonna be a fun watch! Who wants any other kind of coop after watching yours. Everyone should have a hubby that can build anything like you!

[LaLadybug]

I'm so glad your mailbox short showed up in my feed this morning. After watching I came to your channel, scrolled thru videos looking for the mailbox build and saw this one first. I watched and hit the subscribe button because the coop build was SO impressive. I love watching people that take pride in their work, build things. Great job and I'm so happy your wife fell in love with the chicks. Obviously y'all are good people-big hearts!

[Breezeyheart]

This is the first video I have seen of yours. I was drawn in by the picture of the chicken coop and now you have yourself a new subscriber. Great work and excellent job explaining how to do each step. I was looking for some ideas for remaking my chicken coop and I think I found a couple.

I'm looking to upgrade from my starter coop this year, and this is a perfect video! Most show the finished project, which I'm not crafty enough to deconstruct. I needed a video just like this!
