My coop build

*GASP* Wow! I wish mine could turn out half as well, but my dad doesn't believe in spending money on chickens!

Anyway, that thing is amazing, inside and out!

Thanks guys for the kind words. I've never built anything like this before and it's been a lot of fun.

I made a time lapse movie on saturday of the roofing job. The backside is just t111 siding, nothing fancy. Next up is to paint! A buddy of mine has an airless sprayer rig that I'm going to borrow.
My plan is to have the main color the same color as my house and then use white for the trim and fascia. I have a guy coming out Wednesday to do the trench for the fencing. The chickens can't wait to get outside!


Here is the time lapse...

Got some more work done today. I hired a guy to come out and regrade the chicken run and garden pit down to 5'. He also ran a trench around the perimeter for the fence.
I plan on burying the fence in the ground 2' down to help protect against critters.

Here is a short time lapse video.
