He has used the traditional chicken house and run plans but has added a couple of dormers and hidden lift hatches over nesting boxes. Very ingenious!
Here are the new chicks settling in to their new home (view is from the keeper door). A mixture of Black Australorps, Silver Laced Wyandottes, Buff Orpingtons, New Hampshire reds and Dominiques.

Bret you did a beautiful job. We just finished our chalet using the same design, but not quite as creative as yours.Carl & Mary
Bret,
How many nesting boxes are in your Chalet? How many chickens live there?
I just got my chicks in the mail on Friday and will be building my house soon. I really like yours..very creative!
Is is moveable?

There were originally 20 chicks going into Brets 'chalet'. I don't know how many nesting boxes there were, but 1 nesting box for every 3-5 hens is about right.
