Isn't it funny how we all look at stuff that way now? I mean *ANY* left over piece of building material & I'm thinking "wow that would make great screening, windows for a coops, frame, etc. etc. LOL People seem to be getting rid of a LOT of different kinds of swing sets too & some have those club house type square things as part of the top that attaches other piecs to the set & all I can think is "wow there's a completed frame & some walls & doors/windows & you'd got a coop". LOL every time I say this out loud to hubby he'll say "yeeeaaaaa but we already have a coop." & I'll say "yea I know but it would be nice to have maybe another small one in the corner of the garden ya know?" & then I get *that look* I'm sure many here know. LOL

Yeah I know that look!

But you are right because a small one is handy for a sick bird or a broody hen, right!!

Yeah I go through the same thing. I was looking at a pine armoire and kept thinking. Turn this thing over to the side cut off the legs, add a roof with a storage door on top. An instant small coop!
