The coop my husband built is actually more of a run built onto the side of our tool shed. This weekend he will be starting to build the coop into the side of the shed. He will put perches and nesting boxes in the shed and wall off that portion so the birds cant get into the tool area. It still won't be as big as I want it. But we can't change the size due to a tree being next to it. My kids have a two story jungle gym with playhouse on the bottom and a lookout point up top with a slide. I've been dreaming of converting that into a coop when they stop playing in it. My husband thinks it's a crazy idea but I think it would make an amazing two story coop!
Oops! That's probably not going to happen today I guess. I had ducks many, many years ago and found them to be just too destructive. They totally destroyed our pond with their pooping in it. I like chickens, they are quite, keep the weed and bug population under control, and they are pretty easy going.
A two story coop! Sounds cool...but might be dangerous to clean out, lol.
