Does anyone have a materials list for a 10x16 woods coop? We happened upon a ton ad free wood but need to pick up tomorrow and we want to make sure we grab everything we need.

Or if anyone had an awesome drawing that might help us count up materials quickly. We looked at the book and can’t find ansupply list or an easy way to do this.

Thanks
 
I just built an 8x12. I used about 60 - 2x4s, 9 - 2x6s, 3 sheets of 3/4 ply flooring, 8 sheet of siding, 4 sheets 1/2 ply for the roof.
I framed the floor with 2x4s. Used the 2x6s for both monitor beams and the rear rafters. Rafters were 10' long.

I don't know if that helps. You will definitely need more plywood than I used. And 10' lengths of whatever you are framing the floor with.

I think plywood is the only thing they don’t have. We are hoping to find enough for framing and to do siding similar to one of these below. So the above was all the framing?

Yup. I did the floor with 16" centers and the walls with 24". It adds up quick. Try quickly roughing up a sketch of the framing. It doesn't have to be perfect. Then you can count what you will need.
I had a bundle of 55, 2x4s and I bought a few more cause I needed some 12'. I have one 2x4 left over.
 
Here is our chicken coop jackpot!!!!
