Help! Need pictures of cute coops to share with city council.

My city has been going around and around about legalizing chickens.  The final vote is going to be on Monday. It is amazing some of the attitudes I have come across regarding chickens.  There doesn't seem to be much of a gray area either you love um or hate them.  I am hoping to show the council members how cute coops can be.  There are crazy people saying their home values are going to drop, never be able to sell their house, etc etc if chickens become legal.  Well lets just say I was hoping my girls could come clean!  Thanks!

I agree there are some great ones on the site.  I just thought it would be nice getting peoples permission.  Plus I have seen some great ones under different topics and its kind of hard to remember when I saw them.

feel free to use mine as well... it wasn't quite finished but its not a shack and it won't bring property values down... its even wired for power under ground.

Mommahen... nice coop! Have't gotten around to staining any of mine hide

Pictures of silkies or cochins will win anyone's hearts... bring one with you! lol

Here's ours.  Totally portable, not a permanent structure, so no tax issues or property value issues.
