This is the coop that I am building for our chickens. It started life as a utility shed and I picked it up for a nice price. It is 10x10 and I put up a wall inside. The chickens get 6x10 and the other side is 4x10. There is room for storage of feed and other things and access to the nest boxes without going inside the chicken area. The outside is still being snazzed up and I need to finish the trim around the windows and gable ends. It will eventually end up being traditional red and white to match my other buildings.

The nice shade tree to block the afternoon sun:

The 4 nest boxes. Covered now till they start laying. The extension cord was for the heat light that I was taking out.
