I have a 12ft x 8ft shed that I used to raise canaries, but stopped doing that 15 years ago. I made a work bench and stored all my tools in there, and then realized I could make it into a chicken coop by just partitioning my work area off. Got the cooler back working (it was 118 deg in there the other day as we are now getting temps up to 110 deg...the cooler keeps the temp down to a reasonable 85 deg).
I still have some finishing off to do, like chicken wire on the screen doors and cutting out a pop hole for the run and to fence in the run, which will be approx. 12ft x 12ft.
My seven chicks at 5 weeks old have outgrown their bath tub brooder, so I am going to get them in their new house today.
The perch swings up out of the way for easy cleaning behind.
On cooler days, either or both doors can be opened up for cool breeze.
My cockerel wind chime has a miniature solar panel which charges a built in battery...both the cockerel and the red ball light up when it goes dark...neat
