Here's my coop that I attached to an existing shed with leftover materials from my jobs. It's 6' by 12' with a raised floor made of car decking.
Here you can see that I installed electrical. The roosts are on the left with trays that pull out to collect the manure. On the right is the nesting boxes with storage and a brooder above.
here's a close up of the manure tray.
here's the brooder with some chicks. To the right you can just make out the feeder. There's also an automatic waterer next to it. I just need to figure out a way to make that work when it freezes outside.
here you see the door on the other side. The chicken door and ramp. You have to go through the coop to get into the run. I thought this would be the best way to keep out predators.(like my dog) You can also see the cute windows I saved from my shed building days.
Here's a view of the large run. One day I might get around to covering it, and painting the coop and shed.
