Chicken Workshop for Download
Our downloadable chicken workshop includes everything families need to know to raise chicks and maintain laying hens in their backyard: information for raising chickens, the construction plans for our sustainable Kiefer Coop, and other helpful info.
If you’re in the San Francisco Bay Area
Whether you live near San Francisco, or when you have reason to visit the Bay Area, arrange for a private (and free!) get together for you, family and guests. Held at my home in Lafayette, CA in a lovely park-like setting, you can experience the Kiefer Coop in person, and I’ll answer any questions you have. *Lafayette is 25 miles East of San Francisco by car, and 50 minutes by rapid transit (BART).

What is different about the 'sustainable coop?'
My design is unique in that there is no poop odor and no coop cleaning. My concept is 100% natural, and mimics the living environment of fowl in the wild.
