Our Chicken Coop/Garden compound.
I made the floor 8x16 from 2x4 treated lumber and covered with vinyl.
Walls going up. Standard 2x4's with a treated floor plate.
Roof construction
Back door. Used for coop cleaning and added ventilation in the summer. The screen and board are easily removed with a few screws.
Roofing material is Ondura roofing panels.
Roosts and feeder I made. The feeder holds 300# of feed. Roost boards are 2x3's and yes they do use the little steps.
Nesting boxes. There are hinged doors on the other side for egg collection.
Run with shade cloth. Run has since been enlarged.
Electric fencing around the top of our run
Our newest modification, addition of an automatic door opener from Foy's
Our first flock with a friends son. We bought them from an Amish farmer.
