Turning Green house into coop, What's the best way to do it?

[MysteryChicken]

Hello, just looking of tips, & tricks on how to do this. Gonna be turning a greenhouse into a coop for my Sumatras.

I think it's 20' X 7' X 8' I'll have to ask my mom for size again.

I can get pictures of it tomorrow. It's dark outside right now.

If you get some pictures that would be great. If you want them lifted of the ground some you can make a simple floor with wood. Possibly use chicken wire/hardware cloth and wire over the whole thing. The indoor part you can put a tarp over the wire.

We'll be able to say more later with the pictures, but it sounds like you can use the same sort of techniques people use for hoop coops. You can do a search on the coop pages to get ideas.

I have wooden pallets, working on collecting more, & I'm also saving some cash for extra ply wood.

I have lots of chicken wire, I haven't been able to get hardware cloth.
