My pallet chicken coop!!

What did you use to fill in the gaps?

We used other broke up pallet pieces and used jigsaw on them and fit them in. We had to pre drill and put pieces in. Then came back with the big box of joint compound mix and slathered it on

This is awesome! And so helpful. We are going to make our coop out of pallets, and I was concerned about the easiest/most frugal way to close up the gaps. Question about the structure. Is it only pallets? Is the roof a pallet with (my construction terminology is really sad btw lol) the tin roof on top? Or is it pieces of pallet. I can't tell 100% from the first photo

Thanks!!!

Mostly. We took 4x4 s and framed out the walls around the pallets for extra support. And where we put windows and door. Roof was framed out in 2x4 s And slats of 2x4 running in between the frame. We screwed down the tin roofing all thur the 2x4 s. Lol mine isn't either.
