We had a crank out window left over from constructing our house basement because the contractor made the opening the wrong size. This seemed like a perfect place to finally use it. All the walls are packed with vapor barrier fiberglass batts, and since contractors were already here doing some insulation repair in our house, we had them spray foam the inside of the roof in both the coop and storage area.
Wall facing the run insulated and the chicken door framed.
Because of my years working in the emergency medical field, I know the value of good safety equipment. I was cutting a kerf in this 2x4 when what looked like a small knot exploded in my face.I had several shrapnel welts on my face, and the right lense on my safety glasses was hit so hard, it pushed the glasses up on my nose. I'm pretty sure my eye would not have survived a hit like that.
Pre-primed 4x8 siding on all exterior walls.

The building is 8X8, divided in to two 4X8 sections. The tall portion on the left is storage, and the raised section on the right is the coop. You can see below, a couple of the vents added to the crawl space below storage.
Interior walls are 1/4" OSB.
Metal roofing going on. I ordered these sheets custom pre-cut, so they span full length with no horizontal seams.
