Pics coming-just remember-its not finished.

Oh of course. The Coop/Run is never really “finished” for folks like You & I. There is always something next year or next month that we look at or have an “Ah-hah” moment on and want to try it “sometime/somewhere…..”

Very cool-looking setup, Matejka! I feel your pain working in this heat bomb. Husband is out installing flashing and a gutter on our nearly finished 8'x10' run extension. Yesterday he put on the insulation/anti-condensation layers. I suggested he wait until tomorrow when we (Hill Country) will only be in the high 90's . My job will be installing the HW cloth walls and accessories this week.

Take breaks in the shade and hose yourself off from time to time--stay safe.

Does anyone have suggestions?
More ventilation ?

This I’d like to see as well.
May I ask for the “name” of the 2 coops you got? I’d like to look at TSC’s website to see them and also “kinda compare” them with the Carolina design…

Fun fact: there's no longer a link to the model I bought. It's the Producer's Pride Easy-Clean Walk-In Coop model WCC-W. I searched the website, google, etc. and it's just...gone. The packaging said, "Chick Days 2022," which makes me think it was a limited-time thing. It sold out fast. Hopefully, they bring it back next year.

Here's a screenshot I took when I ordered it. Then the American coop from Carolina Coops it resembles. Lastly, here are some pictures of my coop. Which is, of course, still a work in progress.

I've posted my 8-week-old EE cockerel here, NextDoor, and on Craigslist. I have too weak a constitution to cull the poor dude. Where else do you all list these buggers?

I've highlighted how sweet and protective he is of his flock. I mean, my listings sound like a chicken dating app (Tender?): EEC seeks FOH for a little PP and CM.

Someone needs to make that chicken dateing app!

Flyer at the feed store, tsc, community board. We have a farmer market on Sat morning, there is always someone there with poultry or ducks to sell/give away.
