My ww2 ammo box/ old crate coop

[LuckyCluckyCA]

i just built a new bachelor pad for my birds. I had gotten a big crate from a friend that was holding tiles previously. It’s been sitting here about a year. Then I got some ww2 ammo boxes and turned 2 on their sides and used the attached lids as the peak of the roof. I put perches in there and textured linoleum on floor for easy clean up. I’ll put a couple nesting boxes in there too because someday they may have girlfriends. There is a ramp from downstairs to upstairs and 2 front one horizontal opening on one vertical opening doors so I can access the to and bottom easily. I’m proud of my coop. This weekend and beginning of the week- the run! I’m in la ca so quarantined still so the fully enclosed run is the next project.

Very nice.

Clever reuse.

There is a ramp from downstairs to upstairs

Maybe too steep to function.

Are you going to waterproof the roof area?
Cause sometimes it does rain in California, right?

I have it in a run! I just finished the run and it's fully roofed, shaded and the birds love it

OH and there is a bonus house too just with straw and boxes in it so they have lots of dry places

Shade is always good.
