Yeah, I'm not crazy about JCS coops, either, but you're right about the shell. Probably sturdier than the ones from Costco. I'm going to go my best to pester my carpenter to get it done as soon as the snow melts.
So, totally unrelated to the topic of coops and sheds...
I walked into my local TSC to buy feed, and walked out with a cross-beaked Silverlaced Wyandotte. I don't think she's going to make it - she's very skinny - but I couldn't leave her to die in the back room. (I just lost my favorite Silkie rooster to a tumor so I'm super sensitive right now.)
