The ladder/ramp I built by myself going up to the roost/poop tray. I grant you it's a little crooked, but it works!
The infamous webcam...couldn't live without it! I can swivel it to any angle I need and it has served me well. The monitor sits on my computer tower right here where I'm sitting in the kitchen...I can watch them "like a hawk" (no pun intended!)
Another view of the south side of the coop. Here you'll see some of the nest boxes setup.
Here's the feed station right next to the pop hole (notice the bottom cut of the pophole? A tad "curvy" .. that sword saw thingie scared me to death! Anyways, 2 PVC tube feeders, oyster shell to the side, all on a cinder block.

This is my pride and joy! I built this contraption BY MYSELF! Built it outside and my sister helped me get the darn thing into the coop...what a day THAT was! The poop tray is filled with sweet PDZ granular and I can only say if you haven't converted over to this system you're crazy! Best thing I ever did. I just take the kitty litter scooper (up there on the far left) pick up the poops from the previous night...takes all of 3-4 minutes...done! My roost bar is removable using some metal hanger thingies. My BIL sanded and routed the edges so it's real smooth on the girl's feet.
This is one of the PVC tube feeders for the run. Not a finished project yet. Going to add a second one and mount both on scrap pieces of plywood top and bottom, feeders screwed in and set on cinder blocks. Also going to add a second grit/oyster shell cups alongside. The little ramp going to pophole? Another scrap of 2x12 from my BIL, just added slats.
That window came with the shed, it does open up and down. 1/2" hardware cloth over it, and there's the infamous pophole, what a job that was for me using that sword saw thingie. It's a good thing the wood slider setup covers up the wavy cuts!! I used an old cutting board, cut it to size, and drilled a hole in the top for the cord.
