The Cochin Shack (update 8:24 East Coast) PICTURES

It isn't finished yet. I am going to paint it white with green trim. It should be done by this weekend. I just started it yesterday and hope to have it finished Sunday. I hope to get my coop yard covered with Aviary netting, but don't know. I want to spend less than $50 on it. It's a little over 4'x3' and 54" high at the peak.

Okay guys, don't laugh...

I know it looks bad. The building is an OLLLLLD dog house and we are in the middle of replacing the roof. We are using black shingles .

Nothing to lough about, it is looking real good to me.

It'll look better once I get the paint on it. I have the paint, for main and trim, just have to have light. Hopefully it won't rain this weekend

Mom should install shingles tomorrow. We have black vinyl stuff since we didn't see any tar paper for cheap. The vinyl was a CL find for free

LOOKING GOOD.

I would probably have put down some linoleum but that's just me.

There is vinyl, just not past the little board piece

Vinyl makes it OOBER easier to clean

I put lanoleum in mine as well just as a little added protection against moisture and any fluids that may be floating around inside the coop! I bought the cheapest tiles I could and for my 4 x 8 coop, I think I spent $14 on flooring.

Looks good!

Be sure to post pics of when you get it finished!

Well, I love the weathered patina that older wood takes on. It looks pretty sturdy, and should do a fine job. I am a big fan of 'green' projects. Recycle, reuse, renew! Good job!
