that is brilliant. really wish I had made my coop now.. but hey ho.

mine has a ramp/door like yours and in the wet is clogs up with gunk and tis hard to close at night... might see about replacing the wooden door/ramp with something other than wood, so it doesn't "swell"


hi sadgit

the ramp / door is actually bigger than the pop hole so it covers it completely when you close it up. something for you to consider?


ah now that is a damn good idea.. thanks ever so much

here are a couple of pictures of my fantastic new coop, its so much better than i could ever have expected and i can walk in upright to go in and clean.

it has a wired window to let in some light and fresh air. a full size door for me and a little door that drops down into a ramp. with 3 nest boxes that i can get to from the outside and is lifted off the ground too. the roof has been felted so has the nest boxes.

 im sure its as good as any bought coop and more special to me because my dad made it.

pavlova has already laid an egg in the coop so i guess it gets the thumbs up from them too.



i am so happy - does that make me a saddo  :D  :D  :D


can i be cheeky and ask for some pic's inside i am going to build a coop and woderd what you have to put inside to keep them happy
