The coop and run are finished!

[Annemade]

Finally finished the coop and run. I will add more plastic around the run as winter settles in. I already have a list started for next spring. Maybe add to my flock also. I never realized how much enjoyment I get from my girls! Now I just need to make it through their first winter, I'm sure they will be fine.

Beautiful job!
I used plastic to protect 3 sides and left the south side open all winter(in WI).
Also I put a tree stump, a branch for roosting and a few hay bales for them to climb on in the run.

Looks great! Your girls must be very happy!

X2! They will be fine, don't worry too much.

Wow. Looks fantastic and warm. My girls would be jealous.

I have a couple of small trees that need to come down, so I will use at least on in the run. I am also getting a bale of straw this weekend for the girls to play with. The prefab coop will be taken down and used later as a hospital coop or for new chick's in the future. Unfortunately the run faces north, but the house helps to block the north side with a shed to the west. The coop has 2 windows on the south side.

That looks great!

Beautiful!
I just ordered some clear tarps for wind blocks. Winter is coming and this is my first winter with chickens too.
Nerve-wracking, to say the least.
Love your setup!

Looks good! I would raise the waterer up to chicken back height, it will help keep bedding from getting kicked in there.
