Has anyone built a coop from 2x6 decking pieces?

I have a friend who is tearing up his 2 year old good condition deck to put in composite. It is a TON of free wood. Any ideas on using it?

We used some decking material for our run and also the dusting box. A year later and it's still working out great. If we had more, it could have been used to make the entire coop, maybe with a thin sheet of plywood on the inside to make it a little more weather resistant.

Find a place to store it out right now!! (I love re-use)

I tore up a deck last year, 15 years old but still in good shape.
Power washed each piece to get the algae/mildew off, then stacked it with stickers between in the garage for a few weeks to dry, then stored under an out building(again with stickers between) out of the weather.
