    my little "under the deck" coop

    It is 16x6 I literally cannot make it any bigger unfortunately . I have 6 Black Star pullets that are about 6-8 weeks old now. They are just wonderful. The coop is a converted shed and is 4x6. I have it tiered so that they have the floor space of the coop as well. This has been a crazy project.

    What is your favorite coop/nesing box/run "bedding"?

    Thank you so much for your information. I will look around for better coops, this one was not out of the box yet so i should be able to return it. I wonder why it is even allowed to marketed for up to 6 birds if it wont fit them.

    What is your favorite coop/nesing box/run "bedding"?

    I had read that that anything with pine in it is actually bad for your chickens. Is that just me falling too deep down the rabbit hole? Also what brand or type of pellets do you use? Thank you for your response.
