Building an Old-fashioned Log Chicken House - The FHC Show, ep 27
In this latest episode #27 of The Farm Hand's Companion Show, Pa Mac concludes the series on building an old-fashioned log chicken house from materials found on the small farm or homestead, using simple hand tools and self-sufficient, sustainable methods—along with both modern and old hand tools in an attempt to keep and raise poultry. In this installment of the show—which is a comprehensive overview of the entire process—Pa Mac demonstrates how to: 1) notch logs for a log building, 2) make and install wood shingles (otherwise known as wood shakes), 3) use a blacksmith's forge and turn old horseshoes into rustic hinges, 4) build and install wood doors for farm and homestead outbuildings, 5) build and install nest boxes and a roost for the chicken house, and 6) build a chicken yard (or chicken "run") with simple methods for poultry fencing.
Be sure and subscribe to the Farm Hand's Companion channel to keep up with the progress as Pa Mac takes an undeveloped piece of property and turns it into a small subsistence farm. Watch for new episodes as often as Pa Mac can crank 'em out and still run a small farm. (As long as he's alive and kicking, he's most assuredly farming and filming!)
