In many places here, one window and a door, could still be too little ventilation in summer. Especially in places where the humidity is very high in summer. Vents of some sort high in the coop that can be opened only when needed and closed over winter would be better.

I like the last picture of the coop, where the wire attached to the top of the roof.

What is the weight of the coop itself? I see handles for lifting it? I know it is difficult but please answer in pounds, I do not convert to metric well.

How many nest boxes and what size are in that one?

What is its dimensions?

I find your designs interesting. Thank you for posting.

How do you clean the litter, inside? Is there another door for that? If not, you might think about adding one. Being able to open the back or one side, to clean out the dirty litter, would be very handy.

I like the general size and style of it. There are many more people getting just a few chickens for their backyard and this looks like a good size for that.

It looks like a very nice Coop. But I think in these troubled times I like some people would prefer to buy American, no offense just prefer to keep my business at home if possible.

Trust me, that one window is not enough ventilation and when its closed, there is none and no light either.

I've seen these in my magazines mainly the one from europe...I LOVE them and they would definitly look much nicer than some of the coops I have now...But the one I want which can house 10-12 chickens is not in the states yet. I think this one is though or will be soon.

I have been quietly admiring the pictures that Wendy posts of her coops. I think the designs are great and especially like that they are elevated so the birds (& perhaps feed/water) can be outdoors but protected under the coops.

I do have a criticism of the model shown at the bottom of the original post. A roof sloping into the pen will dump rainwater and snow run-off into the pen. I don't think that this is desirable at all.
