Nesting box door finished!

I found this latch a while ago. I never got around to installing it until today. The bottom of the door has a overhang which "grabs" onto the coop wall. I simply put a couple of spare pieces of wood on wall to screw latch onto (not throwing away stuff REALLY helps). There's really not much more to it. It worked out really well. The lock was also one I had laying around. I know it's overkill, but heck, it was "free"...lol

Looks great!

I love reusing old wood. It is so handy to have around.

Yeah, that alone has saved me a lot of money. I am at under $250 for everything. This includes fencing, chickens, etc. I even still have a fair amount of unused lumber that I've bought.
