Crowing
So I am not a builder and I am not sure if this would work, maybe others can chime in, but I would try to turn your whole structure into the coop by building a raised platform and setting the whole thing on top. The top of the platform would be the floor of the coop. You would be giving up the slide out drawer, but raised coops aren't too hard to clean anyway. You would have to get rid of the zigzag supports you have now and probably add supports to the sides, but the plywood sheets on the sides will add some support. Keep the side you have open as a hinged door for clean out. Even better would be to add a second door to the other side of the coop. Nest boxes can be added externally on one of the short sides. I think if you can make it work, this will at least keep what you have already built from going to waste, but I think both you and your chickens will me much happier with a taller coop.
