In a small farm chicken coop a few openings in the building and some passive cross ventilation will suffice. In larger coops, fans should be used to prevent both excess heat and ammonia build up.

How much should you charge to clean a chicken coop?

It really depends on what they want you to do, and on how large the coop is. If it is the typical small household coop, and they just want you to rake it out and toss in new hay or sand, it is about a 20 to 30 minute job. Something like $10 would be about fair. It they are wanting you to add new whitewash, wash out brooding boxes, and so on, it could take a lot longer. The best bet is to find out what all they need done, the size of the coop, if they have supplies on hand, and then maybe allow them to suggest a price.

What is the distance a chicken coop should be from the house?

There are 2 things to consider when deciding on the size of your chicken coop.How much room do you need for the chickensHow much room do you need for yourself.The first is easy to answer. You should work on roughly 4 square feet per chicken in the coop. It's also important to have a run for your chickens. You need a little more room as chickens like to roam - work on about 10 square feet. This may seem a lot but keeping your chickens contented is important if you want to optimise your egg production. If you also intend to breed your own chickens then think ahead - what may seem adequate at the moment will seem a litlle crowded when those chicks start arriving.The second may seem a strange consideration - but it's one people often forget until the coop is built and it's too late. Remember that you also need access to the coop for maintenance and cleaning. Constantly banging your head each time you enter is not funny.Building your own coop is not as difficult as you might imagine - and you at least have the opportunity of designing it to your own specifications.
