Chicken Coop Plans

Here are my sketched out coop plans:
The door hinge and nest box concept drawing of the chicken coop.
It's going to be 10 x 6 construction, wood framed with metal walls and roof, single slope roof with upper corner venting, set on two reclaimed bike wheels, with pull handles (rickshaw-style), and doors allowing us to access the nesting boxes, plus a fold-down walkway for the chicks to come in and out.
The floor with be all hardware cloth, so it will be movable and allow fertilizer to drop straight through.
I have the plans all set, cut sheet laid out, and everything. I just have to finish up the axle and wheel well designs for the wheels.
I should have time to build it the first weekend in June. So excited!!
