So my dad and I have been working on this coop for 9 weeks now. We don't live on the property yet, and we had to go after my dad got off work meaning only 2-3 hours of progress at a time on weekdays. It has been SO hard not being able to just finish it!

But now we're moving onto the property in a few weeks and have GOT to get it finished! I still need to finish caulking, priming, and painting, and securing the coop before starting the run. Hopefully the run doesn't take very long!

Anyway, here are my progress pics!

we've been using some salvaged materials such as half a roof from a dog run (which was NOT fun to get up there!), the windows/door, and some random pieces of lumber/hardware
Thanks for checking it out!

thanks! i recently painted the interior yellow, and will begin painting the exterior tomorrow!

still need to figure out how to keep the egg and clean out doors from bowing as it's just a hole cut out of the siding and used as the door...any ideas?! i also have to remove the hardware to install the trim
