30 Piece 1,5"x2" X8'(ft) = close to $ 60
Roof Metal 60 sqft = close to $50
Nails+Hardware +varnish or Paint =close to$100
If you buy or have new treaded wood no need to painting .
ALL COST for new material Close to $ 460-$ 500
I'M SPEND ONLY $ 50 for Hardware plus $ 15Gas and 6hr work time to find recycled material
The video show in first 3 min how I prepared recycled found wood and material to be ready to use to build the chicken coop . The second part 3 to 10 min show how I built the hen house (chicken coop) step by step Total building time

-Wall paneling 2hr
-The windows ( air circulation) and doors 5hr
-Floor 1.5 hr
