The coops not done but it's coming along great. Chicks move in (out of my living room) once the run is started. They are 5 weeks old tomorrow and need to move out. They'll start out with a small 4x4 foot run with 4x8 feet under the coop and new 4x4 foot sections will be added every weekend until the desired size.
On a not so good note, I had someone stop short on me in the middle of an intersection and I rear ended her. She's an elderly lady (82 yrs old), went through green light but when light rain tooted their horn she slammed on her brakes. She said the train startled her. UGGG. No body was injuryed. I am pretty shook up but not hurt. Neither her or her husband were hurt. Neither of our airbags went off. The ironic thing is that the woman was driving a Mercedes and the closest body shop to my work is Mercedes Benz body shop and since I had a punctured radiator I had to leave it there. The good thing is neither of us were cited.
Pictures of coop as of tonight.

Nice coop!
You are right, Petra... they look a bit washed out.
But you can't beat those purebreds and they came out of hens hatched from Peachick with Geoffrey as the daddy.... too bad you don't have one of Geoffrey's boys over those girls.
I need Mama Hen Chris's mad photography skilz. Or maybe the screaming, fighting, crying kids in the background distracted me from the perfect photo.

Is there such a thing as "rent a rooster"?
