Hi all,
This is my coop, made from the bottom half of a play house we build 23+ years ago.
This is the inside. The wall to the right has foam insolation covered by 9mil plastic. I since have put insolation on the whole inside for the winter.
I have a pink laminate floor glued to a blue tarp on the floor that I can pull out and clean when necessary. Sorry, I don't have a picture of it.
These are my roosting boxes. There are 5 of them, each are 1ft by 1ft.
The roof is stuffed with grocery bags to keep water out.
My computer would not let me rotate this picture, but if you look, it's a picture of a simple plywood door that leads to the run. It connects to a fire poll with a gate latch.
Here is the pully door that lets the chicks out to the run.
Picture of the run. The PVC pipe makes a good place for the chickens to hang out. Also very easy to clean. A tarp offers shade in the summer and protection from snow in the winter.
Behold! The egg door. lol. Made from 2x4s and old board I had hanging up for tools in my garage. A latch keeps critters out
Here it is in use.
I put an awning up to keep from getting wet when collecting eggs.
Here it is from a different angle.
The dementions messure (I belive) 4x5 on the inside floor and from the inside floor to ceiling is around 4ft. The play house is 12ft tall. The run is 6x12. I keep bird feed in the blue bin up top. I clean the coop with a pressure washer when the weather is nice, but after the insolation is up I just drag the mat out and scrap it clean, then use a shop vac to clean the inside.
Thanks for looking!
Rachel
