I was actually really worried about what my neighbors would say. Our property has no restrictions, but all the property around ours does. THankfully our closest neighbors adore our chickens...I think the free eggs are a bonus too!

You can always tell them you got some exotic Asian Ground Parrots.

It's an awesome coop! Way better than mine, that's for sure. One idea... maybe protect your brick wall with something? Just in case it gets dirty for any reason.

My coop is mostly finished - just have to paint it. We left the plywood shelter out in the run for rain/wind protection. Does anyone else have a protected place out in the run for their chickens? They use it when it's really messy out. Here's some pictures.

great start on the coop. And wow that is a great run. Did you bury wire under the run perimeter? What kind of predators do you have there?

Our property backs up to a subdivision and our trees are mostly along the property lines. Yes, we did bury the wire - not the chain link, but the chicken wire that is over the bottom of it. We don't have many predators mainly because of being so close to a subdivision and a busy road. We have the occasional stray dog or cat or hawk but that's about it.
