    Help, need your opinion, does this look normal?

    Coop Build comes crashing to a halt

    I bought the plans for the City Biddy coop off ebay. Over the past couple of weeks I have been buying the lumber, hardware etc. I bought the sheets of siding in two trips because I had them cut each piece for me to size. This helped it fit in the truck to get it home and I didn't hog all the...
