I have a very talented husband that I basically told him what I was looking for and he made it exactly how I had imagined it in my head. Here is the plan he drew up. (See talented eh?)
Getting started on the frame
Framed up the coop house
Installed the coop floor. We laid down individual lanolium tiles for easy clean up. The wings on the sides will be the nesting boxes
Framing up the nesting boxes
Coop all framed (other than the doors and the roof)
Coop with roof
We started to wrap the coop run and realized we had to paint it still. So we had to take it off to paint.
We chose a light green color. Hopefully to help keep it cool in the summer and keep it warm in the winter. Here it is competed to date. We still have to add the galvanized roof, another coat of paint, and handles to move it easier.
The girls love it!
The inside of the coop. We plan on adding some insulation before winter hits to keep it warmer in the winter.
It was a fun but long project. And its not even completely finished. We made it so it is liveable right now, and we will do the finishes after our vacation that starts next week.
