Chickens in the garage! Will it work and any tips on building it?

Can i build a pen or coop inside of my garage?

I have a garage filled with stuff right now but soon it will all almost be gone. So, i was thinking i could put a coop in there so i wouldn't have to insulate it or put a roof up. (The coop not the garage)

So will this work? Should i build a coop or can i just make a pen with some nesting boxes and roosts?

Also, i have a window that i could run a ladder through and build a chicken run in the surrounding area. The problem is that in between the floor and the window is an old work bench so i'll also need some advice on how to get them over the workbench and through the window. Should i try and design a multi-level coop or just make the workbench larger?

I have a chicken run in my garage and I actually cut a pop hole into the side of the garage wall. The indoor garage run leads to the outside run. I also installed an auto-door and couldn't be happier with my set-up!
