Very nice job on the coops. Very handsome roosters too.
I am a fan of a breed that I certainly cannot get in my current location since I would just HAVE to have a little rooster. It is on Cackles site as a Spangled OEGB. Super cute hens and that pic of a rooster is very colorful. (chicken math...
I figured you had already planned on it since it seems like you have done your research.
It is exciting getting new birds. I am glad things are coming along quickly for you.
Good progress for sure!
One thing you may already have plans on doing but I did notice so will comment.
The edges of the wire may need to be sandwiched between a 1x3 or such and the board they are mounted to for two reasons. Right now they are easy for predators to pull out and they are sharp...
I like the progress so far. I also think it is good that it is tall enough to walk into. I see so many runs that are great height for chickens but a real pain in the back for humans. Nice work.
I am glad to have been able to help,
I am also glad to see you are not in the snow zone like I am. We have well over a foot of new snow so no building outside for me for quite a while yet.
Be sure to post pics when you get all set up. I know I really like to see what others have made and learn...
So the entire space including coop would be 4x8? or is this the run space only?
Either way I think you would be ok since they are bantams and not a lot of them in each group. If you can make it larger that is always better.
I know those dimensions are easier to work with.
Are the three...
