What is an "EGG MOBILE"? The Mobile Chicken Coop Palace!
What happens here
This step involves the construction of the chicken coop's main wooden structure onto the trailer base. It shows the assembly of wooden framing, including vertical studs and horizontal beams, and the subsequent installation of wooden siding panels to enclose the coop. Lumber is processed, cut, and fitted to form the walls and roof support of the mobile structure.
Goal: Erect the main wooden structure and outer shell of the chicken coop.
