Nice. I haven't seen the nests that low, before - they're at floor level, correct?

The side door (not seen) has a sliding screen door so it doesnt get to hot in the summer. Their is also a solid door that can be closed over the screen door, if that makes sense?

Looks good. (Looks a lot like my first coop too) I started feeding and watering in the run, so the inside stayed dry. Needed to cover a part of the run to do this. Have fun with your chickens!

Yes - it makes sense - and is a good idea, too! {I hadn't consider that option}
