Thanks for sharing! I am new to chickens. I am wanting to build a permanent hoop coop from cattle panels and this has given me lots of ideas and inspiration that it can be done. I really like the door and that you covered with hardware cloth.
Great article! Most of my chickens enjoy being petted, my cockerel loves to have his "belly" rubbed and then I just slip my hand under him and pick him up. He will come to me and stand there and wait for the rub and then to be picked up.
