Its not finished, just livable. We have to predator proof the run before we put in the chickie door to go outside! And yes, thats an old pinball machine on the right....

And here is part of the gang on one of the lower roosts...

Thanks Boyd

We only spent one weekend on it, its got a ways to go but its a good start! Its in the goat barn, so will be insulated with about 150 square bales of straw in the fall, everyone will be cozy

Great idea! Now I konw how to enclose the front of mine!! I want to be able to open the outside 'human' door, without the chickens getting out, and without me stepping in the poop. I have a refrigerator in the front section, and want to be able to get out the eggs without getting where the chickens are. Great setup!

Can I come play pinball while watching the chickens? I use to love to play it!!

I love the assortment of chicks you have as well. A barnyard full of color... that's what I call it!

LOL thanks. I wanted to keep the double tractor doors and the front half open as I use it for food storage in the winter for my goats. They live in the right side of the barn. We just wired over the slots in the corn crib side so no weasels could shimmie thru. I still have about 15 feet of free space and they have ample room as well. The motor burned out on the pin ball machine. Its so old that its made of glass instead of plastic..and wood. I want to sell it on ebay but the glass at the top is cracked

I love the coop and the assortment of chicks. I have an assortment too but not as many. hahhaha I also am using an old building on my property that may have been a chicken coop at one time but I think it was used for miniature horses the last time it was used. It needs alot of work too but is working for now.

Nice set up
