Pretty cool lol! no there is not any nesting boxes in there we just plan on buying some to save time but i do have a picture of the coop part


(we cut the tin a little uneven lol)

Chicken wire is not an appropriate flooring. Wood slats would be much sturdier and safer for the birds' feet.

And that roost is too high, not enough access and/or head room.

that is just so the poop can go though in the other coop the floor got to heavy and collapsed and isn't like they are going to be standing on it 24/7

the wire IS predator proof! we spent time on just the wire! we wove the wire together with bayling wire and drilled holes though the swing set and put the wire though the holes an then we tested it! we also put fence staples every few inches. as for head room and access I'm short so no need for hunching over and i can get in there and feed them ect. (its not ment for tell people)

Chicken wire is not predator proof. Not even a little bit. Coons, dogs, and coyotes can chew right through it in minutes.
