Getting started on main coop

[salt and pepper]

Can't wait to see it! Am about to make my first pallet coop, and need ideas!

Close to being finished with my pallet coop, doors, roof, windows, and run, are all thats left.

What are you going to use as the window?

I am going to cover with hardware cloth and frame it out. I will add a closable door to them for bad storms. I need a lot of ventilation here in Georgia.

Ok, thank you, none of my coops have windows, but I want this one to have one.

I live in GA as well, one coop has a 5 in gap all the way around, and the other has slits on both sides, as well as one side of the roof opening up. This coop I want a window for though for lighting as well as ventilation. How many birds do you have?

I have six atm and will add three more soon. My run will enclose the coop and be 27x13.

Very nice sized run! I am thinking about making a run, or just letting them free range
