Chicken coop plans are available in huge numbers in bookstores and on the internet. What do you look for? I would like to give a review of what I have found by researching these available publishing's.
The first place most people look for chicken coop plans today is on the internet because of the amount of information available in one place. What I did was type what I was looking for into three major search engines Google, Yahoo, and Ask. Each keyword phrase gave me pages and pages of results.
Many of the sites are giving you small bits of information to draw you into their sales page, they offer you a small gift of some kind and ask for your personal information and start sending you emails on their products.
Some of the chicken coop plans sites are affiliate sites that are promoting someone else's product. The person who has a website and is advertising a particular chicken coop plans product and gets a portion of the sale of the product offered. Many of the sites you will come across will be this type and some of the products are good and some aren't. Affiliate sites are used by many of the major manufactures to get more sales because it is cheaper advertising. The product you get is the same quality and you will get the same service but a portion of the sale goes to the affiliate.
Some of the chicken coop plans you will come across are very vague in what to do. If you are first time chicken rancher and you are looking for specifics. You want to make sure that you review a lot of these sites and pick one that gives you the most complete information. You will notice a lot of the headlines will read something like marketing pitches. Headlines can be deceiving, so make sure to do your due diligence and check each site carefully before you buy.
Videos are becoming very popular on the internet. The quality of information varies so you will have to review a few to get an idea of what you're looking for. For example I reviewed a few videos in my research and here is what I found. The backyard ranchers who are trying to sell their products will put videos on Youtube made with hand held cameras and call them complete chicken coop plans. The fakes are out there on the net, so be careful.
The quality videos are available online as well and you will find them by taking your time and making a thorough search. You will notice the clarity of the video and the clear instructions given for you to follow.
I recommend reviewing a minimum of at least 10 sites before you make a choice. If you're like me you will review even more sites but 10 will give you a good idea of what is good and what is really bad. I hope these tips will help in your search for quality chicken coop plans.
