Enjoyed this completely. Very good writing structure also (makes my happy). I’m in process of planning coop build to accommodate larger flock & now I’m confident that I’ll go with the flat-up 2x4 perch. In my current smaller coop, I used the largest dowel avail at Home Depot and literally saw my grown chickens having trouble gripping it. My solution was to fully wrap it in sport tape (used to wrap elbows, etc). I wrapped it using 4 rolls of $5 tape. Dowel cost $8; Tape cover cost $20. Yep, that’s a live & learn.
