After six months of work, it's finally done! I like overcomplicating things, but this project took too long. I had no motivation towards the end, but it's finally done and outside!

For I second there I thought he dropped it on the zero turn. That would have been hilarious

The doors do look a heck of a lot better now, but adding a latch to make sure the chikkums don't manage to close them and get trapped might be a good idea.

Did you ever fix the mini split in your wood shop?

The cross bars on the upper windows may have been a good idea after all, might keep the chickens from trying to jump into them...

Dude, awesome work and awesome video. When all those turkey eggs hatch your going to be overrun with gobblers. Definitely want to see a video with all the baby turkeys.

I wish I could do stuff like this, it's so awesome. Apart from not having the skills and/or equipment (which can be acquired) I also suffer from analysis paralysis whenever I plan a new project (hardware or software). Well done! Also, that end was amazing, it actually had me laughing out loud :D

Are you going to add a camera so you can see what’s going on inside

I hope you rewarded yourself with a plate of corn muffins after painting that beautiful chicken coop.

Here's an idea: add windows into the access doors so you can see where the birbs are before you open it (and it would look nice)

For some reason, I'm not sure why, this is my favorite video you've produced... and I hate birds, of all kinds, and I'm not particularly interested in wood working...
