I like your set up and your pictures a lot. Looks like your birds are very safe in their coop. I do kind of wish that there were more details of how the coop was made though.

I like your fencing at the gate. Your of to good start. Im always trying to have things as predator proof as possible. Wish you had more building details.

It's looks really convenient to have the coop split in two!

The roos and egg lays are much bigger and older, so I like them to have the full run of the fenced forest, and they get to see the smaller babies, silkies, and Polish Crested, just encase I ever have to integrate them.. But after a hawk took my 1st silkie, I wanted a seperated more secure area for those unable to protect themselves. So that's why the 2nd have of the coop opens into a full enclosure they can safely dig and play in.
