Can I please see pics of roosts and laying boxes you have made?

Here are some pics that show my roost too. My roost is just 2x3s and I slightly rounded the edges.

I was so delighted when I arrived this morning at my coop. I found my girls up on the roost all on their own!

That's awesome!!! How big is your coop?

My main coop is 6x8. I also have a bantam coop that's about 4 x 5 - did the roosts similarly, but my nesting box in it is open - not covered.

That's awesome! Do you have a pic of the outside? I am building my 8x8 on Sat. I was going to build boxes now but I might just wait and see what kind of room I am working with on the inside.

Sorry I don't have pics yet . I have inside nest boxes under poop board/roost are flat 2x4s as it gets cold here in winter and I thought it would be warmer. I do have flip up doors with locking slidout trays so I can collect eggs from outside of coop. I put wire mesh above the slidout trays on nesting box so, I can see in before I start to pull out tray. Nesting box doors can also be proped open for more ventilation as trays lock closed. The doors keep out rain and my coop is on elevated on legs.
