Putting the roof on was a pain in the butt because I wanted the front to overhang by a foot. I'm glad I fought for it thought because it's a nice cover when it's raining.

Framing going up! Thank goodness my father in law knows construction. I designed but he helped it become reality.

We made sure to build in lots of windows. One on either side, one in the front and then two vents in the peaks.

This is the shed we originally planned to use for the coop... but after digging the old owners crap out of it we found it to be falling apart and not really functional for our purposes. It got torn down and the new coop built on the same location.

Front doors and top were 1/2 inch welded wire. This allowed us to put a heat lamp on top when the chicks were little. Now we use the brooder as a chicken hospital if one needs it.
