Hello....My wife and I are new to this...chicken stuff.....build the coop by doing some then sitting down....lol....thinking about it and do some more...a couple of suggestions...

Do not build a Coop in the summer...oh my...took me forever...a really hot summer

Build it twice what ever size you come up with...just saying...I definitely could have went bigger..

Here are a few pics....I must say there are some really wonderful Coops on here...
