Think we got the one we can live with, got the estimate and hopefully, the guy in charge will be back from his honeymoon (older widower getting married again, back Oct 19) and we'll have the foundation done. Posted asking for estimates for that.
This one, with storage area in back is what we're getting, but the roll up door that would normally be put in that opening shown will be on the back, outer wall, will leave that inner one framed so we can do double doors later, which they don't offer. A wheelbarrow can go through the back roll up door, through the double doors and into the center aisle for coop cleaning. Entire building will be enclosed, regular entry door on front end, added an extra foot over the standard 6' leg height, two windows on each side. Will need all the floors, interior work, insulation, extra ventilation, barn fan, pens, etc, etc. But the entire building will be 24' wide and 26' long. Light roof color, either white or light gray for reflective qualities, probably a darker gray siding color.
The storage area is 5' deep and the width of the building, good for all feed/shavings storage. Should be able to put up a loft in the center aisle for overhead storage of hay, etc. The roof panels will be vertical, though, not horizontal as shown in the photo, a more expensive alternative but stronger.
