Chicken Coop From trash can house

I would put few 8"x16" cement blocks underneath 4 corners and then stack pallet on top. The coop will go on top of the stack. You can nail support legs at the corner later if you see fit. The plywood floor create too much cleaning. If you align the pallet right, just cut couple plywood poop tray slide between the pallet slot. This removable poop tray keep your chicken nice and cozy during winter. The idea using cement block extend the life of your coop and the raise floor allow you to scoop the waste out if need. It also give your chicken a place to hang out when snow or hot day.

Here's the start of my coop, I put 4x4's on the corners to raise it off the ground and when the coops done I will be able to open the doors, put a wheel barrow next to it and shovel everything inside the coop into the wheel barrow. You can build something like this and put your coop on top of it.
I HATE THIS, EVERYTIME I TRY TO POST PICS I GET A TEMPORARY ERROR MESSAGE @%$#@#%^&^&**(

The pic that didn't post would show a pallet with 4x4's on each corner holding it up I'm going to try the pic again if it isn't there you'll know why.
