That's good to know about the pop door making it easier to herd them up! I know I'll be adding shed windows, vents, and roof ventilation. And the coop will be shaded all spring and summer.
I'm in NC so I know I'll be adding a ton of ventilation. I also have a nice spot picked out where it stays shaded all day long by the trees in the spring and summer. It does mean I'm limited on any solar fans as they don't work well in the shade, but that seems a good tradeoff. My thought is...
I'm looking to get a Arrow 10-ft x 14-ft Lexington Galvanized Steel Storage Shed and I would like to turn it into a great guinea coop. The plan is to have them go up at night, and free-range during the day.
What are your coop must-haves? What changes need to be made to chicken coop...
Haha, I know I exaggerate a little! But I went out with the string trimmer two days ago and I had to keep stopping to pour the sweat out of my safety goggles!

Hello! I'm Cat and I live in the NC piedmont. I've been wanting chickens and guineas for a while now, and I'm close to ready to take the plunge! My hope is to build coops this fall when it's not 90f+ and 5000% humidity outside. I'm hoping for an assortment of guinea colors, and Buff Orpingtons...
