A simple concept well-explained. The only thing I can't see clearly is how you fastened the layers of wire to each other.

Very nice conversion and use of found materials. I like the update on the improvements. It lacks only a plan with dimensions. 
Good coverage of the basics, but one quibble ...
There's nothing wrong with an outside-mounted nestbox as long as you make sure that it's completely waterproof (top-hinged lids are notorious for leaking), and that you use predator-proof latches. Outside-access boxes facilitate frequent egg-collection because you don't have to put on your coop boots and can just stop outside the coop on your way across the yard.

Unfortunately the plans for the coop and hutches was just a rough hand drawing on paper with scribbled notes of length and width.
And had I had any idea that I would someday write an article about it I would have definately taken more pictures.
Funny that I used the same scribbled note for the second hutch and it ended up being 4 inches shorter than the other..? I still dont know how I did that.
The silo had a walk thru sized hole in one side so my husband built a round door!
He was talented like that. No idea how he did it.
Thanks again for your like and comment. ?
