Chicken coop designs?

My family just ordered 6 hens and 1 rooster. I was wondering if anyone out there has any good places to find free designs for coops. Thanks!

1. what you need is a 50 feet of 3ft chicken wire you also need about 15 peices of 2 by 4's (you may need more if you dont have a big corner to put the coop in. Along with that you need sheets of metal for a roof so they dont get wet. You then procede to get concrete so the posts dont slip out nail a long peice of wood into the wall and then connect wood to that with posts on the end to hold it up when it is sturdy you can get on top and nail in the sheet metal this also gives for more protection. when theframing is done it should look like a overhang until you put the chicken wire around it
