Hi there. I am converting this metal shed into a chicken coop. In the spring I will be moving my dog kennel run to the side and attaching the two. For now, I just need a door. My big chicks love this shed already. I have nest boxes and hay in there - it is very cozy. They wander around in it often, and lay eggs in the boxes. Without a door, however, they cannot sleep in it.
What would you do? I am a small woman with no real construction skills (I do have a drill, but never used it on metal before) very little money, and no real people help. My neighbor would probably help if I asked at the right time, but I am looking for something I can do on my own, if possible. I do have a lot of chicken wire and some old wood boards. Any and all suggestions are welcome and appreciated! Thanks!
