Building A Chicken Coop

I have ordered day old chicks to arrive in late May so I have been busy building a chicken coop. First time I've ever built anything so it has been quite a learning experience but I'm satisfied with the job and I think the Chickens will be comfortable. I have been making video clips as I go along and now I'm putting them together into a small series of short videos.

When finished it will have white corner boards, fatcia at the eves and batting along the seams but I though I would make less mess if I painted it first and then paint all of the trim before I put it up. Other then this I need to install the door and windows and shingle the roof. I was going to put one window in the door but now I think that might get broken if the door blew back in the wind so I have decided on two windows one each side of the door.
