Poultry-House Construction is a practical guide to building affordable, reliable housing for laying flocks and breeders. It focuses on simple, workable designs that suit many districts and climates, helping you cut costs without sacrificing comfort or productivity.
The book covers every essential from site choice and foundations to walls, floors, and roofing. It explains how to keep houses dry, well-ventilated, and easy to clean, with guidance on avoiding damp floors, drafts, and structural wear. You’ll find concrete, board, and earth-floor options, plus tips for keeping the building warm, dry, and sturdy against weather and mites.
It also offers concrete space guidelines, options for different housing styles, and practical ideas for city beginners—like portable units and inexpensive two-box and piano-box designs—that let you start small and scale up as your needs grow. By combining economical materials with sound construction, this edition aims to help you achieve good egg production and healthy stock.
