    They have these two doors and the bottom of the pen is wire. 1/4 has turf the other 1/4 has nesting boxes.

    It’s all done and I couldn’t be happier with it. I also did this all on my own. Husband thinks I’m way overdoing it on the chickens. 🙄 I do have a sign coming that says “The Fluffy Butt Hut Farm Fresh Butt Nuggets”. It will go above the flowers.

    I might just try to do that. Make her something short. Luckily the roost are not over where she sleeps but I would think she’d naturally like to roost.

    Worked on the coop a little yesterday since it was finally nice. Going to pick up fencing next weekend. Still need to side the sides of the wood and finish the run.

    Conver lt into a coop

    Who is a good sketch artist? 😝 I want to turn this into a new coop. My thoughts are putting 4 nest boxes on the back side. Wrapping the bottom and right side with chicken wire or good paneling to keep predators out. Making a ramp from the small side door on the right for them to get in and out...
