So my husband started building the coop on Friday, as of Saturday it looked like this:
By Tuesday:
The bottom will be covered in hardware cloth to provide a shady area, in addition to a solid cover over part of the run. The wood is all untreated except for the pressure-treated base.
The window is a clearance item from HD.
It's essentially done with just a few more things to add, besides the run of course.
The door is finished and I stood in the coop with the door closed, all but one window open and the breeze at the top was awesome. Need it for the humid summers here.
The shed by the coop is being moved and replaced.
