I live in Phoenix AZ,
I am wondering about having outdoor roosting only. They have a large pen that they get enclosed into at night and let out later in the day to free range. But I have a bunch of 3 week old chicks that will need to be incorporated soon and there is not enough room for all of them in the coop. Most have not wanted to roost in the coop anyway. Is it possible to just have a covered space with enough room for all of them to roost and NOT have an enclosed coop? And just have a place for them to lay eggs?
Please let me know if anyone has experience with this.
Thank you so much!
