Resin Shed coop build (in progress)

[RuleroftheHenHouse]

Almost finished with our Costco shed coop conversion! We purchased the shed and used scrap wood and part of our old deck for the run.. right now I don’t have the plexus windows in. I’m thinking of putting hardware cloth over them and taking the plastic that inserts glueing them with a triangle cut of wood so that they’re propped open quite a ways. Looking for ideas and configurations of insides of small shed coops and ideas for keeping clean!

Welcome to BYC. Where, in general, are you? Climate matters, especially when it comes to housing.

He did such a great job on it that I had to add it to my reference link collection as soon as he finished it.

With the cost of wood I highly recommend this route, we are still under what we priced out building a wood coop.

I just bought that same shed to turn into a coop. Glad I wasn’t alone in this thought process!
