I have decided to start a backyard flock, we have 5 two week old pullets( 2 RIR, 2 Barred Rocks and 1 Araucauna). My husband and I are not terribly handy, and we had originally planned on purchasing a pre-fab coop. However, with all the terrible reviews on the ones I've researched, I'd much rather have something hand built that wouldn't cost us a fortune and a ton of skill to build. We have a step 2 kids plastic jungle gym just hanging out in the backyard and thought that maybe this could be up cycled into a cool coop. The measurements are 4'x4'x4'h, it's a big cube. Id of course have a run attached, so the girls have plenty of room to run. Any ideas on how to make this work? Will it even be big enough to use? Thanks in advance
