where can I get windows for the coop? Done pic's on page 3

Where can I get cheap small shed or playhouse windows ? I've tried craigslist, lowes and homedepot so far and the cheapest I've found was $65 for 23 inch. What type of window would be the lightest (weight wise) ?

I've found windows at flea markets and garage sales for next to nothing. Also try freecycle.

I'm cheap. I put hardware cloth on the outside of the openings, and buy some Plexiglas cut to the size of the window openings. Only put 'em in during winter, take the panels down in good weather (most of the year).

I was honestly thinking of doing that but didn't know how. Do you have a pic of your windows I might take a look at to give me an idea ?

A lot of people go to reuse stores or the Habitat for Humanity stores.

I love those places.

They use to have a thrift store where I use to live very long time ago at Astoria, Queens NY. I have to check if they have it here in NJ that is close to us. Thank you wolftracks.

That is where I bought mine. Think I payed about $10.00 a piece.
