Oooh... Thanks for the heads-up on the roofing... I was planning to use scraps of corrugated metal, and never gave insulation a thought! And I like the idea of having open corners with paneled sides -- I was thinking it would be the opposite, but since the coop will be up against the west wall of our yard (or possibly in the corner now that my husband has decided he doesn't want the chickens in full view of the yard) that will allow for better air flow. Does that make it easier to spot/prevent mites and ticks too? (I think I read somewhere that they hide in the corners.... So if the corners are open there are fewer hiding places.... no? I'm one of those city-raised folks who knows very little about animals, too, but I'm learning!)
I had no idea there were so many Tucsonans on here!
