ENDED Coop Page Contest 2011 - Win BYC Store Gift Certificate

I'm just starting on construction, but I LOVE my sister's coop, so I thought I'd share. She converted an existing potting shed into a coop.






Inside the "chicken condo" where they have five nest to choose from, but all prefer to lay in the same one.


On April 4


Same chicks from above pic, now teenagers. Here they divided the run and have the "teenaged chickens separated" from the hens

I have some time to tinker with it and work the bugs out, since I didn't get the mature hens i was hoping for. Instead i now have 13 bantam chicks. So the 'house' won't have a nest box, just more perch space. Once they're grown enough to tell him's and her's the extra roos will find a new home. either with someone local or in the freezer... but that's down the road...
 
Here's our Log Chicken Coop. I think we may have the only one there is. We live in a log home on 9.25 acres of woods and wanted a coop to compliment our home, so we built a log coop with log run from our own logs based on design ideas from BYC members pages. I hope you all like the coop and if you're a log home owner and want to build a coop, I hope it inspires you a little bit to use logs. https://www.backyardchickens.com/web/viewblog.php?id=88683.
