Built my Brother and his Chickens a housewarming gift!

[tiffanyh]

Well we spent the last week or so building a chicken coop for my brother--all my myself. well, my husband helped a little. He watched the kids and held the corners together for me. Such a wonderful man!

Anyway, he just bought a fixerupper and is moving his chicken from a nice old coop to nothing! I knew he would be busy fixing the house he lives in to move in and I wanted his chickens to be safe when he got there. (Some of them came from my hatches)

Figured he had other things to think about and I could practice my skills. It is 4x8. Has a roost inside and a small pop hole out back that will lead to a run. The large door in the front is for cleaning. The chicken window I cut and the window in the door will be covered by plexiglass and hardware cloth.

I considered not giving to him and filling it up.
