| The Coop Amanda Read When we bought our first flock of chicks - 15 Red Star pullets - we housed them in the portable Henspa coop purchased from Egganic Industries. We appreciated the henspa design because it provided efficiency, security, cleanliness and general nice appearance. At the time we still lived in town and had a large, unfenced yard. The smell of our chickens never got bad, because the coop was moved daily (occasionally twice daily if it was really muddy or anything like that). I have always made sure that the nest box and roosts stay clean by simply scraping droppings away with a small garden spade when necessary. |

| Our first coop (a henspa) - and our first flock of laying hens (Red Stars) |
| Our second coop - an 8' x 8' storage building with a vent and back window. We painted it with a dark brown stain and green trim. It is fenced with a Premier 1 portable fence that we have rearranged many times. |
