Roofing

After I finished healing from surgery, I knew I needed to put a roof on this coop before winter came. Some tyvek on the walls is no big deal, but a roof is an absolute necessity. I had some shingles that were leftover from my parent's house and my dad gave them to me when they moved out of town. I eventually had to buy 4 extra bundles, but I had nearly 3 on hand, so there was some savings. I also purchased starter shingles and ridge cap shingles for this project. I installed a ridge vent along the entire length of the roof line and it is cut back along the whole interior of the coop to allow hot air to rise and escape without building up in the loft. At this point in the project, my phone stopped taking pictures without them being very blurry unless I used the forward facing camera, so the volume of pictures I took dropped off.
