The Missouri Mansion

While there are no blueprints ( as you said there were none), the pictures and descriptions seem adequate in following what you did to build this coop.

I love all the pictures and details you give about how you built it and what you would do differently, if you built it again.

Thanks for sharing!

Great job on this coop and extra kudos for coming back and editing so we are able to learn from your mistakes. I wonder how many chickens you have now?

Well-written and I really liked the fact that it got a 1-year update.

This coop is splendidly well-ventilated and has many good features but got downgraded a star for lacking plans and for being wasteful in having so many dimensions that require odd cuts of the bought wood framing instead of working with the standard multiples of 4-feet that lumber comes in.

The gasket keeping the leaks out of the nestbox hinge is splendid and the feeder would be a VERY clever design in a larger coop where it could be better-protected from weather intrusion.

The fly problem was very surprising in a coop this well-ventilated. I suspect that the issue was an inadequate volume of litter for the number of chickens. Kudos for finding a solution that works and explaining it so that others with similar problems can try it.
