Long Islanders.... I know you are out there

Been planning it for a while but finally got started: Made the floor assembly and cut the wood for the frame in garage tonight. Hopefully can get it assembled in the backyard tomorrow. What's your coop look like now? Would be interested to see an update. Did you modify the design at all?- DrFeathers
