Hey guys, Love the site!
I am very new to owning chickens, but my stepdad moved and had to give his up, so I threw together a coop, using some of the resources I had. Because I am new to owning chickens, I am curious as to advice to make sure my chickens are okay. We live outside of Baton Rouge, LA, so it is definitely hot and humid down here. Also, this means that since it rains a lot, it can be hard to keep my coop/run dry. The entire coop/run is 8'x12'. Some of my concerns are what type of bedding would work best for this, what are some ways to make sure they don't overheat, and how many chickens could this coop hold. I'll attach some pictures, and any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Some of the pictures were taken a couple of months ago, and the last two were taken from this past weekend.
