I have seen some coops that have a wire floor so that the poop falls through to the ground. But some have said that the chickens don't like walking on this. Would it be good to put the wire under the roosting section and wood for the rest? Will this help with keeping things clean and good air...
I am in the process of building a coop and see a lot of designs for automatic doors. My question is how important is it to have the door shut every night if weather and security is not an issue? Can you just leave the door open?
