Chicken Coop Plans

     The improvements to the hoop coop are working out well.  They seem to like the new roost and almost the entire flock can sleep on it; with only two birds on a dowel thats in the corner, a little lower than the main roost. 

They like the nest box, but of course they all want to use the same box.  In the shot above, 4 amaraucanas are all jammed together in the lower right hand box.

Even though our girls are still young and fairly small, I feel much better about a 1 cube nest box being big enough now that I have seen four of them inside one.
