Hi All... I’m finally starting the build for the new coop! Thanks to @DobieLover for her ideas on her page. You’re an inspiration and much the ideas I want to implement. I would love to get everyone’s input on how to make make my chicken coop great!
So here are the specs I’m going for, and photos of really crude sketches to follow. Goal is to have the coop portion 8’x8’ and the indoor storage area 4’x8’ for a total indoor area of 8’x12’ of space. Outdoor run will be 8’x20’ for total space for chicken math! I have 5 ladies now and want to have the ability to expand my flock to 15.
Im planning to have nesting boxes inside so the walls are pretty straight build with customize the inside. Also, I’d like to have a brooder/storage area below the nesting boxes. I want to make sure I have enough ventilation and other ideas are appreciated. Thanks everyone, and special thanks to @DobieLover....I really love your coop!
