almost there! *FINISHED update!*

The chicken run is finally done, should have started that before the coop, which is still unfinished (wanted to finish the run to put them out during the day). I think the girls like it, they have been spending the days out there and are brought back in at night. After this weekend hopefully they will be outside for good

Getting too big for their brooder!

the run with the coop inside, I only took up 6 feet of my dh's 16 foot lean-to

Girls enjoying the room!

I figured by building big, I won't feel as guilty when they don't get free time outside of it, but yeah, it is 6' x 12'

So I am finally finished with the coop! Ok, my wonderful dh is finsihed

the communal nestbox and view from under the lean-to off the shed

view with the people door open looking at the front of the coop, big door to clean out the coop!

View from inside the run, looking at the pop door

Inside view from the pop door, have a deterant in the nestbox for now and one roost that spans the coop diagonally

And then a view of the feeders under the coop, Penny and Sally wanted to get on it

It works great and hopefully the venitilation will be enough for the south... the side vents should get the predominant wind and then there is a huge screened are on the roof to let heat rise.

I'm so envious!. I started my coop/run last September, and was so pleased with myself for completing the coop in time to move the 6 week olds into it from our basement. Trouble is I drastically underestimated the time it would take to finish the attached run. Now I have 8 week olds overcrowded and dying to get outside. Your setup looks fantastic and I know it must feel great to have everything finished.
