Meet my Chick!

So I clearly never got post on the plans.

Good news, it is done. It once again took all day. Lord this was a project.

Here is how complex the frame was!

I got the sides on. I repurposed some plug wood from the coop and scraps from the walls of the pool shed itself. In order to accurately cut a top for it I made a cardboard template!

I was able to cut the roof perfectly the first time and attached it to the main shed with some simple latches.

I had to paint the roof before the rain arrived tomorrow. We are considering painting the whole shed white with the roof the minty color of the coop. Sort of the mirror image of the coop. So as a test, I painted the entire electrical box white. What does everybody think?

I love it & I think your color choices will be perfect!

This is really good work!

Did you start a new one?

I love it. Very cleverly done! Still think it needs a chicken silhouette - particularly if you go with the white and minty-green.

This is very well made. It looks nice rather than being an eyesore on your property!

I hope I get tagged.
I think her settings are such that I can’t just crash her posts. Lol.

You are right, it really does look so much better already.

Guess what.... This year we "might" get a NN, so I need some advice!

By the way, Happy Ressurection day!
I hope your day is filled with many blessings!
