Photo of the Chicken Coop to Beat All Coops!

This was a co-op coop on a New Deal homestead in Arthurdale, West Virginia in 1936.

Just think of all the empty buildings in this country and how people could put them to good use if the government would support agricultural applications instead of trying to teach inner-city youth how to flip hamburgers and run a computer. Every town in America has empty, derelict structures which could be successfully converted into chicken coops and provide fresh, healthy meat for the community as a co-op! Think of all the empty lots that you have seen when driving through towns that could be used as community gardens.

If the government would apply 1 percent of the welfare money toward teaching people how to be as self-sufficent as possible think what a wonderful country this COULD be.

That is such a good idea- need I say more?

Actually, there are still quite a few of those old chicken houses left in some areas of the country. They could be put back to work at their originial purpose.

That thing will house 200 soldiers! how many chickens were in it?

[MoonShine]

I'd live in it myself,lol...

Not even Martha Stewart has a coop like this.

I wouldn't want to be NEAR it when a earthquake happens!

There are 50 windows on that front wall. I wonder who washed all those windows. You could make a dandy house out of that coop without much trouble at all.

Good Golly!

I'M not gonna be the one to clean that sucker out!

What if one of them accidentally fell out of the top floor? Would that be considered chick-icide?
