I did it, I made a mini-cooper!

With information and a lot of looking here on BYC I made this for my smaller hens.
THANK YOU ALL for what you do and what you share.

Thank you. I am rather proud of it. It is small but will work for 3-4 small hens. The ones that live in it are 3 Silver Spangled Hamburgs. I added power via an extension cord from the main coop for a no longer needed heat lamp but will be using a heated waterer in the winter.

The only thing I think I would do differently is to make the legs longer.
I made it with all cull lumber from Home Depot so my lengths were limited. (that is why so small)
I think in total it cost me only about 125 dollars including the small run.
