It's not finished on the outside, but the inside is ready for occupancy! lol. The bantam chicks have been sleeping in the 'Mini Coop" for 2 days now. Last night I watched 5 of them go in all by them selves and I had to encourage the others to go in, but I figured in a couple a days they will get the hang of it. I need to add some trim and paint the whole thing, but I waiting to find some "opps" paint at Lowes, or Wallie World. I need to build the nesting boxes. I have the hole where the nesting boxes are going to be covered up, and I am going to make it where the nesting boxes will be accessed from the outside of the run, which will call for some reworking of the run. That can be done later on as it will be a while before they will be laying. The second pic is my other coop that I built with new materials. I can say it was more satisfying building the second one, because it cost nearly nothing!
