Hi Everybody,
My name is Jeff, and I live in Colorado. I'm the proud owner of 4 beautiful chickens who currently reside in a roofed chain link dog run reinforced with hardware cloth. Inside this run resides a cookie cutter coop purchased off of Amazon that is quickly deteriorating after two years of use. Before the winter moves in, I would like to build a new coop inside this run that will improve the quality of life for my chicks and keep them comfy in the hot and cold weather. While I'm not great at building something like this f scratch, I know a few folks that are, and they would be willing to assist if I can come up with a plan to execute.
Here are the dimensions of the dog run (Length-10ft, Height-6ft, Width-5ft). I would prefer to have the ability to walk into the new coop if possible, but I also realize I'm not dealing with a ton of space to work with. Please let me know if you have any ideas or can point me to some existing plans that would work for this setup. Thanks in advance for your help/assistance.
