    Opinions on prefab coop?

    Look at Omlet Eglu. I have those products and they are tough and built for heat and cold. With your heat you will need to place in shade or manufacture shade with heavy tarps. Kevin Ann

    Omlet Auto Door question

It was suggested to just use the time mode as predators (we have many) can watch and get used to the door opening at daylight and hang out to try and get in then.
