The roof of the nesting boxes is in place in this picture. You can't tell from the picture, but I bevelled the front edge so it sits flush against the wall.
The first sheet of plywood is on the roof.
I finished the roof with some OSB and attached the plywood to the front wall.
The door has been hung and a latch will keep the chickens in and the critters out.
The door on the end will allow me to access the coop to clean it.
Two latches keep the door closed.
The pine shavings have been installed.
The birds on their first night in the new coop. The first two nights they went into their old coop and I had to transfer them. After that they figured it out and went in the new coop on their own.
The roof of the nesting boxes is hinged. That'll make getting the eggs easier.
Finally, I installed a nice ramp for them.
The roof was shingled and the entire coop was primed and painted.
