Trish,
Been following your thread from its inception, and regarding advice you gave Tonysorrento about the perches...Did you mean to keep the perches closer to the poop board, or actually lowering the poop boards (that he already has up). I am in the coop construction process and I am hoping to have removable poop board trays below a staggered two perch shelf. Does that make sense? I am planning on putting the poop board around 18"-20" off the floor, and then the first perch about 12" above that, and then another one 12" above that and 12" closer to the wall. Do you think this will work? Thanks.
Sounds like it will work but sometimes our chickens out smart us, lol. Be prepared to make changes if they do
I was suggesting to Tonysorrento that his perches be a little closer to the poop board. The height of his poop boards look good but from the picture his perches seem a bit high. I would be afraid of chickens sleeping on the board under the perch and not using the perch.
Your plan sounds GREAT, have fun building and please post pics of your design!
Trish
