Thank you so much for this extremely helpful article. I only wish I'd read it before I unexpectedly git my first 3 chickens and bought a terrible little cheap coop from Amazon. We've been playing catch up ever since.
Amazing illustrations! I love that the article gets right to the point on all the benefits of coop height (for both feathered and unfeathered occupants). Vertical space is useable space in the chicken world!
I agree. Also adding size of width/length. We have 1 coop at only 8' x 4.5 x 8'. The 4.5W is too narrow. I would have preferred 6'. Of course our 8'x8'x9' is wonderful. Thank you for the article.
Well written with excellent pictures. The boots sticking out from the small coop tell more than a 1000 words. And I love it that you explain why large coops are best but a small coop can work too for some people (with more ventilation and maybe other alterations).
