It's sans Chickens now, but it was nice while it lasted. I had the pt and plywood materials around and made the copper fish scale roof shingles from some left over flashing.
I put a pipe from the gutter to fill their water with rain or the low flow sprinkler. The nesting boxes are accessed from the from outside to gather the eggs. They roost on the bird cage inside the coop and the poop falls to the bottom of the cage and dehydrates there till I scoop it out. The only thing I wish I had done differently was put some wheels on it. 
The story behind the empty coop is explained in the Code enforcement thread. |
