i like it nice and simple looking. You got any pics of the inside. Do ya plan on painting it?

Looks great! I see 2 problems with it though. First one is, it would probably be best to get it up off the ground. Secondly, I would put a run of some kind, to protect from predators. Here's a couple of pics of my coops to give you an idea.

I'm going to paint it and no inside pics yet I'm finishing the nest boxes and roost tonight so will get some posted!

Thanks ken and yes I'm going to add the run next weekend it will be 16'x 6'x4' and attached to the coop...plus I'm raising the coop up a foot! Thanks for looking out though!

I know exactly where that is. I used to live in Navasota, years ago!! I build coops and runs as a side business/hobby. More of a hobby, doesn't pay well. If you need some pointers or help with anything, just let me know.
