Wow that’s sweet! Did you add more perches in the run area of the prefab?

Wow, nicely done! Thank you for posting these photos.
I am painfully slow finishing mine because we had so much rain and because I needed to coordinate times I could get helpers. Hubby has also been working with my son in law building a lean-to over the whole coop and run for safe snow load. Besides that we are moving the coop position inside the run. Most weeks we only get one day together. Hopefully it doesnt rain those days.

Any pictures of the progress of the lean-to?

I will be posting photos soon IF I can catch them! I wanted to take pics of each step but so.times I come home from work to find a piece done. Might get some shots today.

There are three in there. So far they have enough with those. The three older ones roost on the end of the nest boxes(with their butts over the liter tray--thankfully) that leaves room for the others to roost there or in the other area. In the winter I am adding 2 heated roost bars. They are warm enough to get their feet warm to warm the rest of their bodies.

Love it! Way to excellent for a man with no skills! I would say he is selling himself short! My hubby can build only he went the easy route and bought a pre made coop at tractor supply.

Hello! How is your TS coop working out? Mine has only lasted a summer so now we're going to build one.

I took some pics and a video of my flock and the coop and run changes. We've moved the coop to a better position although it still needs to push back further to the fence. It was getting dark so we had to wait for that. Now it's raining. Probably get it done this weekend.

Just a reminder of where the coop sat inside the run.

Video showing the move. Mounds of dirt need to be leveled when we're done.

What are you leaving open for ventilation?
