This is our humble beginnings of our 8x10 coop. I have scoured through all the posts, pictures, and plans and I have finally decided what I have chosen.

We had to take off the floor and cut off 3 inches of the floor joists, we are such lay people, I now know why they make the cuts of lumber they do. I knew when we started this process that we would make mistakes and learn lots of new things. I so appreciate our contractor friend! what a life saver!

Taking alot longer to tackle this project. The wind has been a big factor, and the need of a friend who is a roofing contractor. Finally making progress hoping the chickens are in their new home next weekend.
This is taking alot longer than I imagined it would. We are calling it the TMFC (Taj Mahal For Chickens)
This is also costing alot more than we budgeted.
Almost done 5/5
Going to be adding redwood fence boards to outside as decoration.
