As
my wife usually says, when I build, I usually go over the top. Building
in a back yard that goes straight uphill makes a challenge for any
builder, and this build was no exception. I tried to find the best spot
for the least amount of pain in my back and eye appeal to myself and my
neighbors. as you scroll through my pics, you will see my 10 week
journey in which I was able to shed 30 pounds, and spent nearly $2000.
Some of the details that I do not have pics for, but are installed are
the vents located on the peaks of the coop. The interior light of the
coop is on a timer set for 14 hours of daylight. When the timer turns
the lights off for the evening, a light sensor kicks on the night light
located on the rear wall which can be seen in one of the pics. The
window, which is south facing receives the morning light, but is shaded
by the overhang. I am thinking about adding a south/western facing
window for afternoon light. I am still kicking around the idea of adding
a poop board which can be accessed from outside the coop. The floor of
the coop has sheet vinyl installed for easy cleanup. There is an outlet
mounted in the floor for the heated water hookup. The water will be on
an elevated stand with a hole in the top for the electric to be plugged
into the floor.
