Thinking of investing in chicken coops.
I built one last spring. Took a month, but it turned out to be a regular Taj Mahal. Chickens are cool. We are getting a basketful of eggs every day whether we want them or not. It's fun to give them away to our friends and neighbors. Fresh eggs taste fantastic, especially if you are used to supermarket eggs.
Anyway, the feed mill near us always has a stock of ready-made chicken coops, and they have no problem selling them for $700 to $1,000+, depending on capacity (ie., # of chickens). I recommend you "invest" in one nice coop for yourself.
