Can I see the inside of your smaller coops?

[Esrun]

Trying to decide the layout for an 8-10’x4’ coop which will be built within our existing predator proof run. The problem I’m coming up with is the egg box location. It’ll have to be on the front of the coop as the coop will be the full length of the run (leaving only the front accessible for cleaning and egg collection etc… I thought about adding the egg box to the back and cutting into the run but prefer not to do that.

Here is our large coop that all of our chickens go in... the small coop is not being used right now, only for egg laying. P.s we are do for a coop clean because our babies are very messy...

Thanks! Any of the roosting bars? How many do you have here? Chickens I mean. I like the door on the bottom idea but we have an auto door so that nix’s that.

I keep up to 4 hens in here. They have 24x7 access to their secure run as well.

Thank you. This is really helpful to see how yours opens. I can’t figure out how to arranger the egg boxes since I’ll only have access to the inside from of the front of the coop.
