I have posted pictures of our first coop.
I came up with the design by looking through all the coops on here It's 4x6.
I have to finish the nesting boxes and put on the roof. I plan on using metal roofing recycled from my neighbors barn roof.
We live in the northeast and have a concern about the winter months. I was thinking about insulating it with the foam insulation and covering thatwith 1/4 plywood so they don't peck at it.
My wife is choosing the exteriors colors.
 
Looks great. More pictures please. I'm building one similar and need ideas.

I found this syle in a catalog for coops that are made by a family by me. I used there design and some I found in the coops forum. It should hold 12-15 chickens.
