I really love this hoop coop. So much detail! I especially like that door.
My only change would be to completely cover it with hardware cloth before adding the tarp. I'd be afraid something would chew through the tarp. I'm paranoid like that.

Really beautiful job. I couldn't use it here, there isn't enough ventilation and my birds would melt. I'd would replace all wire with hardware cloth, even though you used hotwire.
I'd also be afraid something would break through the polycarbonate roof.
But I have to say it is very imaginative and a great use of an old swing frame!

It looks beautiful, but there are no instructions or material lists. More pictures might be helpful too.

Pictures please! It sounds somewhat easy, but most of us need to see step by step instructions.

I love your bird tending philosophy. The photos are great, but you need more detail concerning the build itself.

I agree with the others, you need to add some detail about your build. However, it looks very nice.

5 stars! This will be a great resource for beginners looking for easy coop builds.
The pictures are great. They are tempting me to beg my dh out of the unused cattle panels in our storage building.

Great job and wonderful use of space! If you haven't already, you should replace the chicken wire with hardware cloth.
