Ohhh. That makes sense. Cool. It looks amazing.

Thank you!

Looks very nice. A week and half sounds pretty quick to me, but then, I am not very handy.

Cool!
Where in this world are you located?
Looks like desert.
Climate, and time of year, is almost always a factor.

It's easy to do, and then it's always there!

I might have just glanced over the post, but how many birds does this fit? I've got 15, and I need to upsize. This coop looks large enough, and it looks amazing. Did you use any blueprints for it? Do you happen to have a materials list?

I worked on it 6-8 hours a day for the past 11 days. This is the first time I've built something this big.

Ahh...thanks for that. I've never updated my profile. Haha. I'm in Temple City, CA.

I've read a lot of different blogs that says you need 2-3 Sq ft of space for the coop and 8-10 Sq ft of run. I have 70sq ft of run and 21 Sq ft of coop. So I can have for 9-10 chickens. And my coop and run is very high with a lot of roosts, so they have a lot of space. Do you have pics of your coop? How many chickens do you have?

Rule of thumb is 4 SF per chicken in the coop and 10 SF in the run.
