Pallet chicken coop ideas??

I love the look of pallet coops when the builder takes the time to bust the pallets down, and use that wood for the siding. These look great!
 
New chick brooder box. Base is a 40.5"x40.5" pallet with a plywood top.

Ok ga boy and too fast here is my take on the atlanta style coop i wanted for a breeding pen i finished up the run panels this evening and will have it moved to its home location and run all bolted up saturday so i will post the finished pics then dementions for the coop are 45x48x40 high two 12x12x15 external nest boxes for easy egg collection it has a ceramic light fixture to give 14 hours of light to maximize egg output as my primary use will be for breeding four hens and a roo per sesion run demensions are 45x 9 foot with one roost bar and removable poop pan
 
Have a old heat lamp.
the brooder box I am using now is a 30x45 shipping crate I built up a lamp using a old dock light off a truck loading dock and built the stand so I could raise the lamp and lower the heat each week but I have a new idea in the cooker it's a poly 45x48 shippin returnable tub and I will use heat lamps again but I'm going to affix them and use a dimmer switch to lower the heat weekly I'll post pics when done for opinions it's not a wood pallet but the principle is the same lol

That's a great idea I believe it would work good
