The chickens roost at night and go potty, so this chicken wire underneath the roosting area allows their poop to drop to the ground:

We made the house of plywood and cut a hole in the front for the chickens to go in and out (ramp to be added soon):

To get the eggs(es) from the chickens, we hinged the roof on the nesting box side so we can lift the whole roof up to get at them:
