Chicken Coop Made of Pallets

The need for a very low cost chicken coop brought me to this solution.
I needed very few tools and a lot of good old fashioned work. My son's were a great help in the disassembly of the pallets and the build was strictly by the seat of my pants with no more than a vision in my head.
Below I will illustrate and guide you through the process how I was able to turn my vision into reality.

Striping the wood without it splitting apart is difficult with some pallets.
Careful work will help and will offer pallet pins for reuse.

Using the precut lengths of wood made building the structure much easier and eliminates a lot of cutting.

The reclaimed pallet boards made for a great traditional look for the siding. Again the rafters of the roof are precut lengths from the pallets, a few cuts later we had our roof structure.

For the door I sided directly over the door opening, used wood screws to attach trim boards and simply cut it out.

I did use some particle board I had laying around to form the box and then sided over to keep the old barn appearance. Using 2×2's as backing, the wood screws allowed me to build the boxes without actual framing.
