A design for garage coop and attached run.

The message board was a huge help when I was designing my coop, so I'm adding my pix to help others. Special thanks to SeaChick (https://www.backyardchickens.com/web/viewblog.php?id=1766-Our_Garage_Coop) and Anny (https://www.backyardchickens.com/web/viewblog.php?id=9429-City_Garage_Coop) whose coops were great inspiration.

Here's the link to mine!

You've done a lovely job- congrats!

But I would cover that 2" x 3" mesh with hardware cloth as soon as possible. There are lots of urban predators that can get in there, even with the birds indoors at night. Otherwise you'll worry every time you're off the property. Aim for no opening greater than 1/2".

You're having fun though and doing well!
