Love your style of writing & thank you for photos. The little fuzzbutt chicks were adorable & have grown into lovely ladies, I'm sure they love their coop! Yes, we were new to chickens as well, it's a learning process & I now know never forget about the poo aspect. It is a fun journey overall, thanks for sharing
Great job on the coop. I like that you painted the inside white. It seems to brighten it up. I left mine unpainted and have considered adding a few tiny solar lights, as even during the day it is pretty dark. Or adding another window for more lighting. In any case, it looks very very much like the one I just built. The inside of mine is a little bit different.
This is a very helpful article. The instructions are all there, right down to an well-diagrammed diagram and an actual parts layout. The pictures are very supportive - and the captions will give you a chuckle!
