Cooped Up

I have a few updates to share with you, the first being that the chicken coop is just about finished! It has been a long but rewarding process so far.

The bottom half of the door Jeremy built

The top door we designed has welded wire mesh to keep the coop well ventilated. We decided on a two part door so I could open the top door to check on the girls without risking letting them loose.

Finished product with doors stained and installed

Daphne approves! (See her perched on top of the roof?)

Before and after!

These photos don't show the adorable handle I bought that has since been installed on the bottom door - I will update with photos of that soon! Next up is laying a "foundation" of pavers for the coop to sit on and constructing the run.
