Coop for chick incubation

[Chewbacca9]

I thought the tub my chicks were in was too small, so i crafted a little area in my greenhouse to give them a little more space. I t was very quick and easy and kind of ghetto lol The pictures are from Iphone, so not the best quality

I am fortunate enough to have some extra bench space and the chicks seem much happier with more room. They are 5 weeks and getting to roam a bit more. That space has another bench top next to it and the the space under them is connected, when the grow up I'm going to rig that up as their coop and modify the tops so they have opening doors etc for easy harvest. The space is about 8l x6w x4t Plenty of space above on top of the benches for additions Just thought I would share my little ghetto set up. This is my first run at raising back yard chickens Feed back is always welcome...
