Love, love this old chicken coop. It hasn't seen a chicken in years -
I love searching old farmsteads and outbuildings (I always have permission). You can see all the great ideas this old farm wife had; from the latch and drop front for gathering eggs, inexpensive roosting perch to the brackets above the windows. I wish this one were on my property!

brought back memories of an old coop across the road from where i grew up. i spent hours in there with our cats and their litters.
ReplyDeleteIf this were higher, it would be the penthouse coop. Luxurious! Love it. I'm glad you found it and I'm also glad you shared. Thanks for linking up!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great coop and fantastic photos, I'd love something like that too!
ReplyDeleteGreat photos, those chickens would have had a pretty flash home in their day.
ReplyDeletethat is certainly an old place
ReplyDeleteMany a chicken has enjoyed that as their home. I saw those around a lot growing up. I think they still use them in certain states.
ReplyDeleteI love it
ReplyDeleteI've never seen the inside of a chicken coop before!
ReplyDeleteReally interesting post. I haven't seen a chicken coop since I was a kid.

Too bad it had its 'hey day' long ago. It could so work today too.
ReplyDeleteGreat series. [my chore when I was just a tad....was collecting eggs!!!]
What an interesting building!! I have never seen the inside of a chicken coop, but this one was built with care and attention to detail!! I especially love the windows!!

ReplyDeleteI love it! Wish I had one like it too. Now it's just going to waste! :(
ReplyDeleteI bet there were a lot of eggs gathered in that chicken house. Neat old place.
ReplyDeleteGreat find. It looks very clean, if you get my drift. :) Thanks for sharing it with us!
