Ok, at first I wanted a recycled wood pellet coop. Now, I think I am changing my mind to use an existing tree house as the coop because the pallets coop wasn't turning out to be as cheap as I thought it would be..
I will need to insulate it (and protect from rodents and any other animals) because at the moment it is very windy. I can see through the floor, so to avoid the chickens' toes getting caught in the flooring, I thought of applying old vinyl flooring that I have on hand! Would that work?
I have this left over (I don't think they will mind the color haha). It is very thick:

The tree house is this:

I can stand up freely in the house.
I have never wanted to use it as a chicken coop because it is pretty close to my neighbors'. I am not sure of the amount of noise produced by 3 to 5 chicks.. NO ROOSTERS!
I made a little video of the house. Do you see too many down sides? I know there is some work to be done, close the gaps, make sure it has some ventilation, etc.. but I think it could be cheaper than the pallets coop!
Thanks again
