Post yours if you want. I will share some encouraging and kind words from the forced-to-be-frugal perspective.

The first thing that came to my mind when seeing your pic, was- "oh look at all the happy chickens in their nice straw!" "And look at the wonderful places to roost!"

Really and truly- that is what I thought.

I had to go back and look at your pic again after reading, since I looked at the pic before reading.

I think it looks just fine. If it were fancy, they would just poop all over it anyway!

Your chickens look very happy and content.
It must be just right.....

Thank you Stephanie739, As soon as I typed my response I knew that I was going to post pictures of mine. We used to have a great setup with a barn and a big run but since we moved we have had to get creative till spring. My hunny built a coop with pallets that we had and I made them the nest boxes. Now that we are settled we plan to build a better coop and bigger run when the spring comes. My girls definately have everything they need and then some

Your coop looks so warm and cozy and if I were a chicken I'd be so grateful for it on a night like we're having here in WNC.......temp. expected to drop into the 20's with wind gusts up to 35 mph!

I think more windows would be good, so more light gets in it. Other wise idk, it looks fine.

I agree with all the posters, your hens look happy and comfortable

Your post is so timely for me, because a lady is coming to look at our roosters, and she has a gorgeous set up. I was feeling bad for the hens who are stuck with us - so thanks for the reminder of what really matters!

Thank you everyone for your kind words and suggestions. I think what I really learned here is to at least clean the poop boards before taking pictures

lol
