It's cute, but too small for more than one or two chickens. Also, did you buy a kit or build it yourself? It would be nice to know and if you built it, what plan you used, building materials list, and an explanation of how you did it step by step. etc.

Looks like this started out to be great chicken tractor but it didn't get finished. Good explanations though that someone could follow and try to build it.

Nice coop and good explanations of a few things, but it lacks explaining how you built it.

Adorable coop with great step-by-step instructions with photos.

The grammar/spelling could use sprucing up but that isn't so bad that it can't be read. Good job!

Your coop is too close to the house so runoff is going to hit the coop roof and run. Maybe you've rectified that but this article doesn't say anything other than a great deal on materials.

It looks like you started a great article but never finished it. It's a cute coop/run idea for a couple of chickens though.

Very informative, but as others have said, this article is in dire need of pictures! Show us the difference in vents, saddles, hackles, wings, etc.

This is a great article and I know true about the bears as we deal with them around here.

Having some photos go along with your text/paragraphs makes it much more interesting or easier to read. I see some are in the gallery, but most aren't going to take the time to click elsewhere.

Well, I'm a little confused by the fact that the pics can only be accessed through the Gallery. I added them the same way I would add any others - by clicking "attach file" - but is there another way I should do that so the pics end up in the right place?

A very unique idea! A little more explanation would be helpful. It seems small but has more room than meets the eye!

I think it's a pretty good article you wrote, but if the explaining you wrote about what you did could be split up to go with the pictures, that makes it easier to read.

Very helpful that you added what you'd change.

We can't see how it turned out, but looks like you did a great job from what we can tell. Just a sentence or two to explain each picture would help.

This is amazing to show what a person can do with some old cabinets. Good explanations and pictures too. Love that heated waterer idea and the treat holder.

Great ingenuity to build this coop out of pallets. I like how you explained each step. Nice job! As you can afford or scrounge, I agree hardware cloth would be better to keep out varments.

I love your spruced-up coop!

It would be neat if you'd explain a little more under some of the pictures what you did or how you did it and explain how it is more bear/varment-proof.

Also, I noticed little things like your DYI waterer, LED light, ramp, automatic door, etc. that you put in. A few lines about all those perks you installed to point them out to folks would be nice too. It helps others trying to build or remodel coops and gives them ideas.

This doesn't really help me make a MHP.

The pictures were good but it's just showing all the pieces and parts but not explaining how you made it. I'm not sure what the weather information was there for.

This would be a tremendously better article if you could put a few lines of explanation above or below each picture.

I have silkies so never have to deal with chickens that fly, but this is a great article for those that do!
