What size should your chicken house be?
We can custom build a steel poultry house for you. This article shows you what size house you need to house the number of chickens you wish to raise.
Steel poultry sheds come in many different sizes and materials. Depending on how many chickens you wish to fit in the house we can build a house to suit your needs.
All of our houses come with the following equipment. Further down you will find out what size chicken house you need to put the number of birds you wish to raise. Our poultry sheds are made from robust steel angle iron and clad in 0.3mm galvanized sheets.
The smaller houses use 25mm angle iron and the larger houses use 30mm x 300mm angle iron. We have worked on the industry standard of 15 birds per square meter but this can be increased up to 21 chickens per square with proper poultry management and care.
We can also use thicker steel sheeting and angle iron if you wish. We also offer insulation for poultry houses.
