Ok, we had to move the chickens into the coop while it is still semi under construction. The main building is built and today we put up a temporary yard so we could shoo them outside while we put in the windows (welded wire with fold down siding flaps on the outside for bad/cold weather). We still have to put in nest boxes but no big hurry, still a while before they need those.
Still so much to do "cosmetics" wise.
But my question is this...
If I decide to paint the inside of the coop, which I really want to do, how long do the chickens need to be out of it before they can come back in?
This coop has TONS of air flow with two big windows and a big walk in door I can open to air it.
I want to use interior/exterior water based paint and it is HOT here (in the 90's today) so it should dry fast. I just don't want my birds keeling over from any residual paint fumes.
