Chicken Coop Project - Day 7

The nesting box is in!  That was the big accomplishment tonight.  My dad has been helping me on the project now every night - I think he is looking forward to having the chickens around, but he won't admit it  :o)

Here is the nest box from the coop side.  It is 2 1/2 feet off the floor and 5 feet long.

Here is the back of the box that is in the storage area.  See the back of the box opens down for access to the eggs.

Here are the windows (garage sale - free item) that I want to use.  Need to figure where to put them and get them framed in.

Tomorrow I will pick up the plywood for the walls and the roof!  So far our weather has been great - hope it stays like this through the weekend!
