Nice job nice to see the conversion. I alway tell people they can convert those types of sheds. So now I can prove it.

Great coop! Are you going to put anything on the floor? I used scrap linoleum on mine and it cleans up super easy.

love what you are doing with your yard , your iris are beautiful !!!!
the flower's that look alot like chives are called candy tuffs ( I have them all over my yard in many of my beds. I also have a few of the mini bearded iris that are dark and light blue and a few orange iris but I really loved your yellow ones, and yes the colour did come out in the film, Thank you for the tour of your garden and your shed / new coop is looking great too

You'll be very happy to NOT have to carry food, etc TO the coop. I imagine that you can frame a couple of doors with 1 x 2's and cover them with chicken wire bent away from the bird's living quarters, then screw in a simple latch. ALWAYS look for hardware with out sharp edges, because EVERY animal I have even owned mysteriously finds them and gets hurt!! Sometimes we forget to close things up, so you might put a rope as a 2nd tie, ONLY as a failsafe. I have a chain with a springhook (like mountain climbers use), that I hook after I leave the chicken run, and that way I KNOW that they are closed in.
