Great way to upcycle an old swingset, and for 130 bucks you did a great job of building a secure coop. The progress and completed photos are nice. Would like to see the interior shots and maybe a sketch of the plans, but those are "nice to have" bits. Well done!

This is a good looking small coop design. With the dimensions mentioned in the article it would house 3-4 birds (about 37 sq feet incl. space under the coop). I would have liked to see more photos of the construction process, however. Perhaps in a future update?

A well designed build that flows well into the space surrounding it. Lots of detailed photos and explanations make this an informative read. Well done.

The photos of this completed coop look great. The article could use a lot more detail, however. Dimensions, interior shots, and photos of the build's progress would go a long way here. Bonus points for coop plans. It's clear a lot of care went into this build and the new inhabitants will enjoy it for sure.

Well designed and constructed coop which flows with the space. Lots of progress pics and great descriptions. The inclusion of plans would knock this out of the park.

This is a good place to start. A backup chicken tender and a checklist to mske their lives easier is always a plus, and gives the keeper peace of mind in case they have an emergency and cannot tend their flock for a period of time.

Informative article. There are a number of repetitions early on that could be streamlined a bit. Also the section on shredded leaves has some conflicting discussion about storage being both dry and moist at the same time. Overall the content is very informative. With a little streamlining and some attention in the leaves section this is great.

Lots of good photos, but without some explanation and even rough dimensions they don't really tell the story of this build. I hope you can get some updates in for us!

Great article with lots of pics and explanation. A measured drawing would put it over the top if you get time to add one, but great article.

Edit:
After Author made some very helpful edits, I'm updating my rating from 4 to 5 stars.

Lots of good information in here, but also use of stock photos, which is a no-no on BYC.

Great start on this project. Some more detailed interior photos and perhaps a parts list and floor plan drawings if possible would really help others who might want to try this out.

This is a nice little creative coop. I wish the photos were a bit larger though.

Nice way to repurpose an existing structure.
Nice tips here about recycling materials. Might want to add a blurb about making sure when you're out gathering your materials that you get permission before you take them, especially when talking construction sites. Contractors have no sense of humor when it comes to people helping themselves to the scrap piles without permission.
