looking for Pics for idea for inside new coop

Mama Hen Chris I love the inside of you coop. I think that is a little more than I am going to want to do. We have decided that we are going to have solar power to the coop for a fan and lights. We are still looking at wood and plastic sheds. There is a 5 x 8 garden shed that is there that needs work and it will work for the 13 chickens that I will be taking with me till we can get something bigger build. We are looking at 1 1/2 foot per bird for if we did 4 to 5 foot we would have them in the house and not us. The are going to free range all the time and I know that they don't like to walk in the snow so they will have a place that will be snow free as we can get it. At some point I hope to be able to have a very large Barn for the chickens and rabbits that is all solar powered(with a back up)
Well first we have to get the house and 26 acres.
 
Here are a couple of pics of my new coop inside - it would have to be scaled down for a smaller coop as it is in a 12'x12' space with 9' ceilings. One of these days we will take pictures early in the day (instead of at the end of the day) when there is more light - still waiting on lights to be installed in coop.









 
That is very nice. I cannot wait to see what I will come up with. I do know what I am going to come up with, a lot of that depend on what I have to work with or buy.
 
My coop and the inside: BTW-- "My Coop" link in my profile and signature goes to my page that describes all dimensions and what lumber, etc I used.

OH! and I'm nearly finished with a "FREE" coop. So far it's cost me about $40-- in hardware. I have been recycling wood from last year's tornado that blew down a couple of buildings on our property. I still have more to do on it-- a second coat of paint and to do the finishing things --put in wire, and fill in gaps, etc... Here it is:
