    Punk 00 -The coop is working amazingly well, its about 10 minutes a night max to check on them, gather eggs, double check food and water and close the coop up for safety. The poop deck cleanup once a week takes an extra 5 minutes maybe? And since we have the poop deck the total clean-out of...

    Great job! Your coop looks fantastic, I'm sure the hens will love it. I really like the ability to access the eggs from the outside.

    Nice job! I love that you've been using the re-store, I tried to find windows to build the coop around when we started, but they didn't have the sizes I was looking for at the time. Glad you had success.

    Punk00 - Thank you so much for your kind words. The nesting boxes are just under 12" squares, there's a total of 6, but the dominant hen keeps switching it up so they are squabbling about what boxes to use. The inside diameter of the coop is approximately 86"x86"x 100" just under 8ft square...

    Thank you 21hens, it was to date the biggest project I've taken on, but worth the trouble now that the girls are in and clucking around.

    Hello from a Newbie in California

    You could rent it out as a getaway cabin, Funny you should say that... as we were building I said, if this chicken thing doesn't work out we can convert it to a tiny home

    Hello from a Newbie in California

    Thank you, I've been really pleased with the calm personalities of the australorps and the buff rock ( which we thought was an orpington but all her brothers had whiter legs and she was the only one with yellow legs) They are closely related from what I understand anyway. So funny to watch them...
