Nest boxes viewed from the access door. The have a higher lip in the back and a lower lip in the front. I keep 2 ceramic eggs to help them know where to lay, otherwise they tend to go all over the roost.

I love my shelf! It's right in front of the nest box door and is supper handy. Here are my containers for scratch and grit/oyster shells, they have handles on them so they can be carried

Inside roost. I originally was going to have 6 chickens but might just stick with 4. I'm thinking the coop could easily fit 10 chickens.

Inside of roost with nest boxes. The nest boxes are also up on some blocks with hay stuffed underneath to further insulate them since they tend to sleep in the boxes
