You can read basic details on my BYC page

Do you have any pictures of your coop?

 

[fdehaven]

Look on my BYC page for the pictures as I do not know how to post them here.

That is a very nice coop!!

First nice coop!

Probably more pics it would be clearer but, How do you get under the roost to clean ?

I also would put some trim around the nesting boxes, to keep nesting material and eggs in the boxes. It also gives them more darker and cozy nests that most birds prefer.

Again nice coop!

There is a door on the back side of the roost.
I am going to add more to my page later.
Thanks for the good comments

Wow! It looks great! I have one question for you tho. How are you going to move it? My husband built me one about that same size inside the barn this winter. We didn't want to put it right outside because our birds were still younger. Well they're old enough now and we're trying to figure out how we're gonna get it out of the darn barn. It's heavy! How you moving yours?

I'm not sure how to move it. I may have to get my Father-In-Law to bring his loader up to move it.
