A Chicken Coop Christmas Ornament

[MrsMistyReal]

You really should go into business. You know how that there is all these house & property shows. What if there was a show for chickens/ animals. Like flip this coop, or chicken coop nightmares, scoop on your coop. I have lots of names. Just my mind wandering, & my mouth shooting off

chicken coop nightmares

Would put most coop manufacturers out of business...all those tiny prefab coops.

Nah I don't think so, then all housing projects would have been out of business long ago. Just a thought that's all, my mind is constantly wandering

Nah I don't think so

One can hope.

I could live without my chop saw but not without my Kreg pocket screw jig. A speed square and a circular saw is almost as good as a chop saw for 90's and 45's.

Fair. But you've seen the roof line on this design sketch.

"Flip this Coop." Guffaw.

Yep, and that is what a speed square is for cutting roof rafters. Don't get me wrong I have two chop saws...

Would much rather use a chop saw.

Love my chop saw! It isn't scary to use and works well.

So looking at your design.. maybe you can give me a solution?

See how the nesting boxes come out? Well, we get a LOT of rain. And when collecting eggs from my boxes that are like that, the water pours in where I lift the egg box lid at the hinges area..

I had that problem too @EggSighted4Life.

@bjmoose can I suggest a design I have seen often?
Instead of a lifting egg box lid a drop down back to prevent water entry.
