Fashion advice please!

Hi everyone, my issue is that my coop is one of the most ugliest things I've ever seen and it really stands out in the yard ! Any advice to make it a little bit attractive?

Yep. White lattice fencing will disguise and pretty up a coop and run quite nicely.

Painting or staining things one neutral, natural color helps a structure blend in with it's background. Painting it all the same color also de-emphasizes any unattractive features. Adding trim painted a contrasting color can draw attention to features you like and away from the not-so-pretty ones. Attractive landscaping can do wonders for a coop's "curb appeal" too.

Isn't paint toxic for chickens? Are there any types that aren't?

I suppose yes, if they managed to drink a bunch of it. Painted and dried on a wood coop, no.
