Made my own Coop, respectful critiques welcome!

As far as stuff for the run, I put a hardware cloth frame on the ground in my run to preserve some grass and herbs. The chickens can eat what grows through, but they can't kill it. I cut some 2"-3" dia branches and screwed them to the framing in various places for roosts. (The jury is still out on that because some birds like to "camp out"), I want them in the coop so it's easier to scoop the poop.
I have a dusting box, a skid leaning against the wall for roosting and hiding, and a bench that I share with the girls. I think you can see pretty much everything on my coop page.

Yep, It blocked off with a piece of plywood for now. I heard you were supposed to block them off until they are of laying age, but I don't remember where I heard it/why I did it/or if it was even necessary.

I did the same thing. I'm probably about 3-weeks from opening them up.

Looks wonderful! Looks like the one my husband and I made. We based ours off the state coop company too. You will love the clean out door, the way it swings down is so convenient! Great job and enjoy!

Well done, well done indeed.

You did better than the company you were going to buy from would have done.
Those will be some very happy birds, bravo!

It looks fantastic! I wish we had done something more like this than what I went with. There are just do many options, it tends to get overwhelming! Especially when you don't have any experience yet.
You did great! Your wife should be thrilled.

Absolutely positively beyond the shadow of a doubt one of the best builds I've seen.

Please do not show it to my chickens. They will desert me sand come live with your flock.

If they do be warned....they eat like teen aged boys.
