Milled from 3×6 redwood salvaged from the NW Pacific RR Tunnel from Larkspur Landing to San Rafael (Marin County CA) built circa 1886. Salvaged galvanized sheet metal roof. I had to resaw it and make due with odd sized pieces. The milling was quite a process but the wood is so beautiful, it was worth it.
This coop should be good for 10 chicken or so. It was sold as part of a live auction lot for a fundraiser and went for $5,000. I probably had about 100 hours into it.

Bad lighting. Also the plywood at the bottom is temporary until the chicks are big enough to not escape.

I saw a gate with this detail somewhere else. It adds a nice detail and custom look.

This is the egg-access door. I used some of the spikes (zinc?) that were in the wood as latches.
