This is my first chicken coop ever!  It is 4 x 8 and 5 ft tall at the front and slopes down to 4 ft.  It will house my 8 little babies :)  Still have the shingles to do on top, and the run to build (ahhh)...but the coop is just about done.  Still want to get a sign for the front.  It's looking a little bare right now.

Exactly what I had in mind for mine, but we have breeds we now want to keep separate. So it's either 4 smaller versions of this, or one HUGE version with 4 exits.

Perfect design. What breeds are you putting in it?

Do you know God?

ACTS 20:28

Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.

ACTS 2:38

Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.

Yes, we had it wired so we could plug in a light/heating lamp for winter - we live in Vermont, and a heated waterer woot.gif
