Show me your silkie coops

[Pete's Chicks]

We are building a small coop that will house 5 standard chicks until we get our bigger coop finished in the fall. When the big coop is done, I would like to use the small coop for 2-3 silkies.

Please share any info about the best kind of coop for silkies. I live in Wisconsin, so I have to keep in mind cold snowy weather.

Please include pictures, the more detailed the better.

Thanks,
Joanne

Here's what we used for our Silkies, after our main coop/run was finished:

Modified Chick-n-Barn/Yard

Hope this is some help!

We use a calf hutch we bought off of craigslist that DH converted and added nest boxes. My silkies don't roost so no need for roosting poles. It works great.

It's a prefabricated coop from Ware Manufacturing.
