Barn style Coop with 100% covered run, complete with 4 large nesting boxes, fully insulated with repurposed pallet walls. Our 7 chickens are loving it!

Is there anything you wish you'd done differently after all these years?

Gorgeous coop but would love more details on the building process! Also how the chicken wire has held up for you, any predator issues, etc.

Nice looking coop, I like the barn style. Just wondering about the use of chicken wire for your run, any plans to replace that with welded wire to keep out some of those Alaskan-sized predators? Thanks for sharing your coop with all of us!

You both did a great job. I felt guilty giving the article so low a rating when the coop is so awesome! Could you possibly add the link to the free plans? Details on how to make a coop like yours are are the only things missing for your article.
