Show off your converted playhouse coops

Nana2KJS - I love your coop! So cute! Especially like the potted plants on the front step - nice touch!

This is a photo of my coop. Visit my page to see how I built it. I still really love it! It does have a few cracks along the corners where the panels join together. I have not decided yet whether I will fill them in or not. So far the temp inside the coop seems to stay about 10 degrees warmer than outside in the run.

I am also putting together a town of playhouse/coop. This is my first. a work in progress. I'm making my pen larger as we speak.








I can't wait to get it finished. I will post when all is complete. I have named the area PEEP TOWN U.S.A.

Thanks, everyone, we have enjoyed the chickens and our little house so very much!

Put foam board insulation under the roof of the coop this morning. Even if they don't need it, I don't feel quite so guilty about the cold. A little bit of sunshine should go a long way toward keeping it toasty. I've been reading the "cold" threads and keep wavering between old school don't worry about them, and newbie neurosis.

I already put my pics in another thread.
My BYC page has my other pics.
I cut the pop hole, attached the tunnel, attached the run, and put pine chips in it. I put the roost in, but they don't like it.
Now, I have to figure out a way to get the roost a little lower, and put a ramp to the attic.

What beautiful coops you all have made! Who would have thought converted playhouses would work so well. Bravo! You are my inspiration.
