So we decided build a whole new coop for our 3 pullets. I really needed one that I could walk in to and clean without bending and wincing. Getting old perhaps. Hubby has of course over engineered it. It’s a tractor but very heavy so not sure how much I will move it. It is pretty simple but will have a walk in door and a coop area about 30” off ground so I can just reach in and sweep it. We also splurged in an automatic door due to my work travel (should that ever happen again). We got the Pullet-shut door and are really excited to install it. Some preliminary pics attached. Finished painting a nice yellow with a blue roof. Hopefully will be done in a few weeks. I have been reading about using sand in the coops. Gonna try that for this coop. So many ways to build a coop it was overwhelming. Those girls better give me some eggs!
