Is the cupola functional or decorative?

 

[Yakisugi Coop]

Beautiful!

That turned out super cute!

Added the framing for the roof today. The coop is coming together nicely.

Looking good! I love the fun color.

This has turned out very nicely.

Will you be adding a way to connect the run and coop? Like a "chunnel" (chicken tunnel)?

"Chunnel" Yes! I like that term. I have an Omlet solar door that will be added to the side of the coop and the last two pieces to be built are the tunnel and nest boxes.

For the tunnel, I left an opening in the run that was about 42" wide and 30" tall. The run is 36" away from the coop. That ground will add another 10 sq ft to the run, giving the hens a little more room.

That will be very nice for them.

I didn't come up with that term by the way.
It is a pretty good description though.

I absolutely love what you have built here!
