Rubbermaid Shed Coop Build and Run

The question I’d ask is where are you? I’m in a cold climate so food and water are in the coop all winter long , water is inside all year ...
I’m in central New Jersey.
Ok I understand keeping the water in the henhouse during the winter so it doesn’t freeze as fast. But why keep feed in the henhouse?
 
Great job! As @Wyorp Rock mentioned , my only concern is ventilation and heat in the hot summer months. Plastic is durable, but you will have to monitor the temperature inside, because those sheds get mighty hot in the sun. I would definitely suggest cutting bigger windows and covering them with hardware cloth for better ventilation. Even in the cold winter months, ventilation is essential in order to prevent frostbite.
Best of luck with your new coop!!!!
 
Welcome to BYC @mediamst !
Nice conversion...and nice shep pup.

Agrees with the roost surface and ventilation comments.

Where in this world are you located?
Climate is almost always a factor.
Please add your general geographical location to your profile.
It's easy to do, then it's always there!
