Hello from Maryland!

[Michael OShay]

thank you, and yes we are planning on using the hardware cloth, I know we have foxes and raccoons in the area and don't want to lose any birds! I also just bought an automatic door from chicken doors.com. We are also planning on insulating the coop and it will be solar powered with lights. If you are going to do something might as well do it right!

Sounds like you are doing it right! Post some pics for us when you are finished!

Hi and welcome, that coop sounds pretty cool. Just add cable and a fridge full of beer and you will have a nice relaxing spot to hang out with your girls lol.
