Alvin made it to my specs on his property and it was delivered on a big flat bad trailer. On the other end, that you can't see it has a little chicken door and another window. I do like the storage side. I have all my grain for all my birds stored in galvanized garbage cans that hold 50-100# of feed each. Plus I have 1/3 of the storage side partitioned off for my 12 Marans chicks. I have tarp over their area with 2 - 250 heat lamps and its keeping them plenty warm even though we've been having bitter cold weather.
I just feel sorry for the little buggers living like that all winter. :(

This coop is just for my chickens.
I also have an old shed we use to have for our horses (that we no longer have) that is now used for my ducks and geese.
It has 6 box stalls with an isle down the middle where they all go in at night. They all know which stall is theirs. Plus I have 2 - 75' x 50' loafing pens off one end of the building and another 25' x 25' breeding pen on the side of the shed and my hubby built me 3 new breedings pens this past summer. I still want to make another 75' x 50' pen for the raising my goslings.
One can never have too many pens. ;o)
Despite all the pens my birds free range as much as possible.

Heres one of the pens...
