What is the size of 90 angle piece that you use for the feeder? I am consider using 2", but might be too large for 1 month chick.

Your coop looks great! I've been watching since your beginning. We started ours in May and have three things left a to do. One is the poop board. What did you make your out of, plywood or something else. Did you make it removable and how heavy is it? Is that PDZ you have in it? How wide is it? Your help is greatly appreciated! My chicks arrive in two weeks. Here's our build if you want to look: https://www.backyardchickens.com/a/clamser-coop-started-on-05-02-2014

Wow Sam! It's beautiful. What a fantastic job from conception to the finished coop. Your chickens must love it and I'll bet you do too.
