It may be zip-tied together, constructed from old lattice and a cast-off beer pong table, but I think the chicken coop is sort of quaint, who-care-what-it-looks-like-as-long-as-it-works kind of way.
The coop is a converted horse stall that has been reinforced with hardware cloth to thwart any predators who are looking for a chicken dinner. It's currently divided in half to keep the Replacements away from the Originals until they're closer in size.
One of my favorite features is the
ADOR1 Automatic Chicken door. The door is battery powered and opens and closes automatically and dusk and dawn each day. That means we can be out late at night and we don't have to worry about nighttime predators getting into the coop.

| Amenities in the Originals side of the coop include a hanging feeder, a waterer on a mason block, a bowl of oyster shell, a colorful set of nest boxes, a cat litter pan used for dust baths, and an automatic door. |

| The Replacements have a lower roost, a hanging feeder, and a waterer. |

| The Originals may have the automatic door, but the Replacements have a very stylish Gucci door! |
