In "Chicken DIY," aspiring chicken farmers will find creative plans and easy-to-follow construction tips for making a safe and healthy environment for their fine-feathered friends. Veteran farmers and poultry enthusiasts Samantha and Daniel provide complete and easy-to-follow instructions for 20 essential projects, ranging from coops and feeders, to runs, ramps, roosts, incubators, and more.
