Good idea. The guy who built it has attachments for anchors already in place, so I'll promote those to my DH.
Nothing worthwhile is easy. We tried cutting a window yesterday. Dang, that stuff is thick. Industrial grade steel siding. Long and short, we are hiring a handyman friend to come out with the right tools and cut them on Thursday. We tried heavy tin snips, a jig saw, and a hack saw and ended up with a ragged, half cut hole. Murphy's law in action. He said he would cut the holes, then on the weekend, we will do the window framing inside and out and attach the window panels and pop door panel.
I'll post pictures of the progress when there is anything to post.
The good news is that we got the paint bought, and my DH is good with a table saw, so the framing for the windows is going well as is the prep work for the nest boxes. OH, yes, and the structure is VERY solid and sound. During the week, I'll get the painting done and the 2x4's marked for the roosts so DH can cut them (I'm still leary of that saw). If I have all the parts ready when the windows are done, it shouldn't take too long to finish the thing.

Might I suggest you invest in some nice long earth anchors, if you haven't already, to hold that puppy down. I was sure more comfortable during those recent very windy days knowing my girls were well anchored. Nice coop!
