Truly good chicken houses serve many purposes. Not only for keeping them safe but also for nesting and roosting. Chickens are food for anything and everything. Critters of all kinds will happily take advantage of the unprotected poultry.

As in any construction, the first issue to be dealt with should always be location. A suitable area can not be chosen until a few factors are taken into consideration. Weather factors such as directional winds and storm paths should be thought about before the construction begins. Easy access for egg collection and animal care is also a major issue to be dealt with.

Once the location is found the next step is to choose a design. Practicality and function should take precedent here. Something that will do a job that is required of it and allow for ease of use as well. Design will vary with differences in needs or geographic locations. Weather can be a huge issue and needs to be dealt with in the design phase.

The size of the building for housing any kind of animal is also a prime issue to consider. Animals of all kinds need their living space for health and happiness. Being safe and protected will keep them that way.

A larger flock of birds will require more necessities as well. Necessities such as the nest box for laying eggs in and egg collection are important. Another key issue is the roost area. Birds need to perch upon a raised surface to safely rest above predators in the wild. Indoors this can be simulated with ease. A ladder like area will help make a happy and well rested flock.

Having the proper amount feeders and watering dispensers is also a good thing to keep in mind before raising anything. Food is always important to animal well being, and water is crucial for good egg production. A good overall chicken house is a place of egg production and protection. Keep these two factors in mind when building a bird haven, and enjoy your flock.
