You are blessed.

WOW that coop is more than I imagined it would be. It is so large and well laid out. There is so much in there.

I'd hoped to use some ideas for the new one I am planning to build, but Holy cow I couldn't get it all in the 10x16 I had planned on.

Did I say WOW

It was state of the art in 1915!

You just need a bigger coop!

I tried last year to convince DH I needed a second one-no go.

Geez...makes my coop look like a dump. I better not let my chickens see your place...they might get online and by a plane ticket.

They will need to pay for 6 weeks hotel accommodations before livng it up in the barn.

I would like to know the dimensions of the "built-in poultry feeders" you described, even though someone said they were originally intended to be nest boxes. Am planning a coop to be built soon, and would like to incorporate these.

They were not intended to be nest boxes. Nest boxes are built in under the roosts. They open and close to allow access to be blocked.

The feeders are different sizes. I have some for chicks and some for chickens.

The chick feeders are wired. They are 20 ft long by 4inches wide and 6 inches deep.

The adult feeders are 24 inches long x 8 inches wide, x 12 inches deep with a slanted cover to keep the chickens from roosting on them.
