Hi everyone,
We are converting an old chicken coop into a duck house and had some questions about ventilation. Right now the old chicken coop is about 10 feet tall at the arch, 8 feet wide and has two vents about 5 feet up that are 1 feet by 1 feet with wired screen to protect against predators.
Should I get ridge vents installed on the roof of the coop to help with ventilation? If I do the ridge vents should I close up the two existing vents to help prevent against drafts during cold winter days? Should I add any insulation to the attic? (walls and attic are currently uninsulated).
Thanks,
Lonesome Duck
