We will post some more pictures today. Hopefully if the weather gets better (like it's supposed to) we will be painting this weekend!!! We had the paint picked out, but it ended up being to pink and the chickens didnt like it, so we took it and had it remixed ....now it's a beautiful barn red! Thank you for your interest in our project. !!!!
 
It's wonderful!! You're getting (or your chickens are) a beautiful spacious coop and you're having fun building it. Does it get any better than that??

We started out with a toilet flush handle thing I (BeaverGirl) picked out for the pull handle....it didnt work to well. So this nice chrome ring is what GopherBoy came up with.
