Hey guys!
I finally got around to putting the coop together. The coop was a doghouse that never got used. So I extended it a bit, and cut a hole in the roof and installed hinges to make a door for easy access in egg removal. and installed a nestbox ( still need to install another 1 or 2 ). I know it's not the prettiest coop. But they have a good bit of room to run around and shelter from the elements.
Measurments:
Free Run Area- 10ft long x 8ft wide x 5ft high
Coop/Nesting Area - 5ft wide x 4 feet deep x 4ft high
* I still have to paint the coop. I am painting in barn red and white, and will post pictures when its painted *
-=The run and coop=-
* The view from the inside, into the run *
The Coop * lid Closed *
* Lid Open *
* One of the nesting boxes *
I have 4 hens for now, and plan on getting 4 more. I also am getting a newer tool shed 12x12ft and converting it into a coop.
