    New coop

    They are 6 weeks old today :) DH went and put them all (81 of them) on the roost last night because the heat lamps are up high. He teases me because I like the chickens so much, but he's just as guilty of doting over them ;)

    We found a longer 2x8 outside and are gonna rebuild their ladder and move their water and feed around to accommodate it.

    Poop deck width

    The coop walls are up and we are ready to build the roosts and poop deck. I can't seem to find how wide the average deck is though. Is 2 feet enough? Should we go wider? Any thoughs are appreciated :) Good morning, please feed us!!
