I like a large people size door. It makes cleaning 10 times easier. 

I have 18 chickens, one kitten, 3 dogs, 2 hermit crabs, and live on 20 acres in the country. I am CrAzY about chickens and plan on getting more! I am continually working to better my chicken practices and to better my flocks.

Walk-in height is the ONLY way to go! Our original one is just 18" high and I can't wait for our new coop to be done! Bending over and crawling in that gets old real fast.
