Possibly going to look at a 6 x 10 home made trailer today that is for sale. In addition, I have family looking for used horse trailer. The current materials I have include 5 corrugated roof panels (89"x22"), 1 (89"x15"), exterior screws 200 (8 x 1 1/4") , corrugated roof screws 50 (10-1"). wood includes 4x4x96", 1x4" plywood sizes: (1) 21"x 90", (1) 17 7/8" x 96", (2) 11 1/2" x 21", (4) 18"x 14", (1) 13 7/8" x 17 7/8", (1) 18 1/2"x 96", 3/8" plywood sizes: (2) 4' x 8', (2) 80" x 4', (2) 70 3/4"x 4", other misc triangle shaped around 49" at base. Debating between slanted roof or A Frame. Any ideas or suggestions will be greatly appreciated. I have 9 hens and located in south Florida. I searched coops thread and only came across sizes, and tractor coops could find trailer coops. Thank you.

Went and looked at a 6x10 trailer and purchased for $425. Got it home and started to clean it up. Going to plan this out prior to building. I am attaching pictures. No rush in building want it built correctly. The floor of the trailer is a hard plastic like sheet about 3/8" thick.
