Hiya, and welcome to BYC! :frow
Sounds like you're going semi-retired, and relaxing a bit. That was fun having all those critters I bet though!
We're glad you're here!
May I ask which breeder? I know many and have had adolescent birds shipped here too. I had to put one down recently. Vet said liver disease/ailment. She was 10 months old. I'm so sorry about yours, but she may wind up just fine.
The Kaytee Exact @Wyorp Rock mentions above is what I use for...

That's a pretty smart vet that told you about BYC! :)
Feel free to post pictures if you'd like, as we love to see them!

This is one of the most beautiful coops I've seen. Wonderful photos!
There are no dimensions of anything though, to help someone else build this. Nice job though!

Great pictures and instructions to help someone else build this.
I think this is a great article to show others how you can build a specific coop just about anywhere, out of just about anything! I love the use of non-traditional things like a truck topper, whiteboards, etc. Very creative! The "blueprints" were a helpful addition, too.
It looks like a very nice coop.
