I love this coop. Here's a view of the inside and the outside with the run. The inside has nesting boxes with a broody area up top. You can see there is a broody up there right now setting eggs for me. The roosts are over heavy gauge wire that the poo falls through. I just rake it up and toss it out. It blends into the trees and doesn't stand out at all. Perfect for me!

Very nice I like the way you manage the drippings that's cleaver

I love it but I'd recommend adding a lip to those nest boxes so they don't kick the bedding out and eggs don't roll out ha

Thanks I'm glad you love it we worked hard I was thinking it needed a lip I'm actually gonna try some plastic tubs that fit in that I can clean easier if not I'll just get two 2-3 inch strips of plywood

No problem! That's a good idea! I've seen a few people do that actually

I just like the idea of being able to take them out and wash them and it will make future cleaning if mites attack much easier

Yeah it's definitely a good idea! I would have if they fit in mine. Lots of people use cat litter boxes too, there's many different sizes and shapes so finding ome to fit should be pretty easy and they're pretty cheap

I think so the spaces I got are pretty big it's an old drawer set from under a queen bed my stepdad repurposed for me

Wow that's awesome! It looks great and I'm sure will work well.
