Man, I have some SERIOUS coop-envy now!

WoodenPony, how much would your DH charge to fly out to So. Cal and build me one just like yours??

I have only a small amount of space to play with, so here is my starter coop and run:

Well, they quickly outgrew that run so two weekends ago, my DH and I built this new one. We are carpentry-handicapped so I'm pretty proud that it hasn't fallen down yet!

I love to see how creative everyone is. If I had to build a coop I would not be able to decide which coop to copy!

 

[Minefalls]

Yes, I built it pretty much myself..My brother did most of the lumber cuts for me and I put it togather. He made the door and trim out front as thought it would give it some character! I used the plans on build it yourself website I just moved the chicken door and window to the run side so I wouldn't have to walk through the run to clean out the house and the window would be protected from preditors.
Boy, It was hard work, I have new respect for construction workers.

We just finished the coop today! Thanks hollyclyff for inspiring us to transform our old wooden swingset into our new coop. It is insulated, has vinyl flooring inside, and the fencing is buried about 9 inches on all sides. There is a vent at the top that is closed right now (it's getting cold here). We painted it to match our house.

you guys all have very spoiled chickens mine live in a tractor with a movable plastic fence and flight netting. I dont like the Idea of a stationary coop and all that cleaning.
