    Needing your opinion on the roost.

    (Sorry, for the mess we haven't cleaned the poop yet today.) Hi! I'm wanting opinions on the chicken's roost, above. It's great, but it takes up lots of room and it very hard to clean the poop under. The chickens don't roost the bottom perch, they only use it get to the top two. Thanks!

    It's a slope ceiling. The tallest point is little taller than 6 feet and the shorter point is 5 feet 6 inches.
