I am a newbie. I've been wanting chickens for some time. My wife had one condition if I built a coop...that it be 'cute.' I like to build stuff and just finished up a two story garage and needed another project. I cannot say it is an original design since I borrowed ideas from many different coops built by other folks. This weekend I'm installing an automatic door. And, hopefully a functional cupola soon. The gang seems very pleased.
