Hello from Wisconsin!

Hi from Wisconsin! We've been raising chickens for 13 years, but we are redoing the coop this summer so I'm looking for your expertise to help me make this new coop just right.

Hi

Glad you could join the flock! Have you checked out the coop section? They are some great coops there that could give you some good ideas for your new coop. Here is the link ~https://www.backyardchickens.com/atype/2/Coop_Designs

Good luck with your new coop and enjoy BYC

Welcome to BYC. Glad you decided to join our flock. Definitely check out our Coop Design link that Yorkshire coop left with you. Please feel free to ask any questions you may have. We are here to help in any way we can. Cheers.

I too recommend the coop section. Rule of thumb is 4-5 sq. feet per bird in the coop - excluding roosts and nest boxes & 10 sq. feet per bird in the outdoor run.

Hi, welcome.

I love seeing coop ideas and plans. More chickens to house in palatial surrounds, just up the members' alleys.

Good luck with your coop build. You could document the process and take progression photos to post about it on the coop forum:
