I recently moved my chickens from my ex's to my mothers back yard since I can't have them in my new apartment. I have a secure run for them, covered with a tarp for the time being, and they are free ranged for a large part of the day. Dad says I can move the run next to the shed and cut a hole in the side of it to make a roosting area for them before winter. I'm guessing the area I can use is about 8x8.
So, I need ideas on how to begin building this. Does anyone have pictures they can share of a section of a barn or shed being turned into a coop area? I am a visual person, and need to see it before I can begin. Thanks for any ideas!
(PS: Just to clarify. I'm a 43 year old experienced chicken hoarder (I mean herder!) looking for advice, not a young first time chicken owner)
