We have our custom coops and we do probably four custom coops a month but our production coops we do about three to four a day. You know, instead of the big, big corporate guys, which, you know, I guess they had to work their way up to the top, but I think that's really, really great. And I love hearing stories of the individual that has made a successful business. Which you can't really explain what that means, unless you've ever worked for a family owned business or especially if you grew up with one. And there's many reasons why, we ship them all around the world now, which I'm also very proud to say these are things I never thought I was ever going to say. You know, 12 years now in business, I can now say proudly, we definitely build the best chicken coops out there. ![]() So it kind of came from that and slow and steady. Everyone's blaming someone else for their financial problems. Also remember this is in 2008 is when everyone's losing their jobs. So I showed them that bigger when I was building and they purchased it. And I had a couple more calls people wanting to buy a chicken coop. So anyways, I started building myself a bigger one. And I ended up selling my little coop on Craigslist for like 200 bucks, which I was actually embarrassed to begin with to even put it on Craigslist I was like who's gonna buy this little tiny chicken coop It was so nice like I can't just throw it out. I've never had backyard chickens until then and I fell in love with it chicken math kicked in it bit me really quick. It started with me just wanting to build a chicken coop for myself.
