I'm hoping DH will get me an auto door for our anniversary. I think he's tired of me jumping out of bed first thing in the morning

Alrighty Joe, here you go (had to go to my mom's again to upload):

The coop is roughly in the middle of the run, so there's more space beyond the building. The t-posts are for hawk protection, we did this in our original run (our orchard) and it keeps the hawks out.

My broody girl checking it out:

I stapled up screen material to keep the chickens out of the storage area. Then weighted it down with some small chunks of wood so it doesn't flap in the breeze. I wanted something that wouldn't block light or ventilation from the windows.

So that's it folks, it's finished! Joe, you can have your martini now!

WONDERFUL Kelly!!! love it - I have 2 auto door openers, one in each coop and once I split up the big coop (in 6 mths) into 3 breeding pens I'll put two more in. They changed my life!
