The run is 6' long and 42" deep. The height is 6' in the front and angles back. I have 8 six week old br pullets in there right now. When they reach broiler size, 6 of them will be going to freezer. There seems to be plenty of space for them.. no issues with fighting so far!

That is awesome!!!​
 
I have a playhouse coop for my Frizzle Baby'. Mine sets on the ground and is inside an Atrium type pen.



Pretty simple. I changed the inside, around yesterday. I put the Roost bar up. Moved the feeder and water, the heat light and thermometer, to a different area inside. It gave them more floor space. They loved the new Roost bar. I don't need a nest box yet. so I think I will take that out today. I had some plastic voting sign material. I cut a top door out of it. I did not have hinges so I made some out of a bike rubber tube. The plastic material is double thick and weather proof.
I had thought of putting it up on a platform and I had already built one. I use it for another hutch set up. Two Story. The Loft.

I don't know why those photos would not open. I will have to wait for another day. Got to run for now.

Wow, I didnt think my buffs would keep warm in my Play house coop!!!! Im in South Texas and we had alot of cold and rain....temps got down to 17 at night here, and I did cover the front door *grill area* with a board I just sit in place didnt nail it in, and I did put hay in between the grill and the board....My hens stayed warm!!!!!

since its sitting on a pallet its off the cold ground, then I filled it with lots of hay for warm, and like I said just put a bull board to fit the doorway and insulated with hay in between that.... My buffs are now 5mos old and HUGE...and they still do good in this...know its time to upgrade them...but its cold/rainy need to wait for summer.

We found the camera we lost yesterday. I will try to get a couple of photos for you over the weekend. It's dark in the mornings when I leave and dark by the time I get home from work now.
 
Just found this thread so here's mine. The chicks are inside for winter but this is what they'll have for warmer weather as it isn't winterized.
It's placed on plywood with wheels so that I can drag it around. I used a shower curtain cut to fit the windows and velcroed it the coop to prevent the rain from entering.
