Creative farmers repurpose durable containers housing livestock humanely. With ingenuity, boxes shelter poultry, goats, rabbits and more naturally. Consider dedicated containers’ key features:

Ventilation & Airflow
Drill louvered vents high and low enlarging airflow versus solid-walled barns. Fit screened windows promoting cross-breezes. Insulate against temperature swings.

Roosting & Resting Platforms
Suspended plywood decks furnished with shavings or straw provide comfortable stable areas raised off damp floors. Include multiple levels servicing flock sizes.

Feed & Water Stations
Attach automatic nipple waterers and hanging tube feeders accessed via elevated platforms keeping supplies dry and clean. Create catchment areas below.

Nesting Boxes & Creches
Privacy-screened private laying areas supply hens places feeling safe. Heat lamps nourish young livestock until independent. Position thoughtfully.

Fencing & Pasturing
Couple repurposed containers semi-permanently set within sturdy multi-species rotational grazing areas. Portable electric netting subdivides acres flexibly.

Cleaning Stations
Hose-accessible alleyways aid diligent waste removal from floored containment areas into runoff filtration zones. Pressure wash disinfection between groups.

Anchorages & Shelter
Hurricane tie-downs secure structures stoutly resisting winds. Trees, sheds, or additional containers near hinged run shelters supply cover from elements year-round.
