Coop with original roof made from reclaimed pallet wood. It leaked like a sieve so I tore it off and installed corrugated metal.
In full ventilation mode. Two of the three main access doors opened and latched to each other. The hardware cloth-covered doors under them can be opened as needed for access without having to close the open solid doors. The coop is elevated 2' above ground on 4 by 4 posts and is 5'x8' with a 5'x12' run giving them 100 square feet of outside space to roam. It stays nice and cool under the coop.
The girls' first day in the coop. They had a good view of me building the run. It was amazing how they could just watch me for hours through that window. They have lost all fear of the sound of power tools.
