hey Colton, there are lots of plans on the b.y.c web, several good Ideas. You look like you ve got a pretty good handle on things to start with. I saw a plan that allowed you take eggs from outside the coop, I thought that was a good idea. I also thought If you had the nest boxes outside the coop that if the bottom was hinged it would make for really easy cleaning.You may not want to take on that much work; as it is not for you. Still its worth looking at from an education standpoint.........GOOD LUCK!!!!!!! nice to have a Dad as a carpenter!!!Oh my gosh it's snowing still.My chickies are all nice and warm though, but mad they can't go outside. My plans failed me, well my friend failed me. He now want 20 chickens!!! and he wants it to be at least 64 sq. ft. Just have to make some minor changes. Getting a supply list started: shingles (free, dad is carpenter), wood-small stuff free (dad work) , big wood dad can get what I don't get at habitat for humanity. Don't need windows(have already) screen (have), latches and other tiny things will have to be bought. Most of my expensises will be from wood and latches and thins of that sort. No run, they will free range they said, Big thing off my mind. Hoping this covers it all, if I miss anything important please comment. Always want to impress a friend and his family!
Jealous of you having a carpenter in the family. My brother-in-law was very handy to have around when I lived in Iowa. Sad to not have connections out here! I know enough to be dangerous, but not really useful. 
Only if they deserve being nice to.
WOW How cool to see the white deer. I ve been an advide outdoorsman my entire life and never seen one in person. I drive through that way every day to work. I might have to try to get a look at the deer. What kind of birds do you raise? I may have already asked this but theres just to many of you to keep up with.
