Looks really nice.

Talk about white paint, I find this white primer at homedepot very cheap:

Do you think it's a good choice for painting coop?

Primer is not intended to be the final coat. Do a web search on "painting using primer with no top coat".
You can get combo paint and primer, those are ok, of course. This is what I've been painting a picket fence with:

Wow, nice. I missed this one. Hopefully, I can get some chickens via chicken train in the future.

Tilly, I think you need to paint on top of it.

I'd use an oil base primer and either oil or latex paint. Glossy is easier to clean and sheds water better.

I will add that if you lurk around the paint center at the home centers, you will find a place where they sell paint the was tinted wrong or otherwise "seconds", and this is way cheaper than the stuff on the shelf.

Thanks so much, everyone. That helps a lot for me.

I am going to be moving to PA in the near future. If anyone knows of a small acreage with a house and barn, for rent, please let me know. We have small house dogs, an inside cat, and one horse and chickens to put in the barn. I am employed and will transfer with the job. Please pm me if you have any leads.

Edited to add the area I am looking at: Greensburg, Mt. Pleasant, North Huntington, Delmont, Latrobe.

PA is a big state, where is your new job?
