Advice Please re: Up-cycled Play House Coop (photos)

This is all very helpful, thank you.

After reading, reading more, and researching, then staring at my structure for way too long, I'm wondering if it might be simpler (and less expensive) to just take out the floor of the 2nd stories, making it one tall fenced run, and negating the need to chainsaw down the overall height. Then build a raised coop box on the inside back wall (with nesting boxes accessible from the outside, roosting perches, and a removable floor - thanks so much for the vinyl tip).

Imagining it painted red w/ cream trim, a big salvaged people screen door, and a couple of hodgepodge salvaged windows.

Maybe it's too ambitious. Costly? Iit seems a shame to have this large redwood structure taking up so much space and not turn it into something fun to look at.

Thanks!

No matter what you decide to do it will always be what you wanted and the satisfaction of doing your own design will be rewarding in the end, just make sure you post some pictures of your progress and enjoy the journey of chickens :-)
