I live in Salt Lake City, UT and I'm looking at building a coop. I really like the idea (and look) of the chicken arks, but are they good for the winter? It get's below freezing here at night in the winter and it just seems like the siding doesn't give any space for insulation. Does anyone...
I was thinking exposed 2x4's, we are planning on having a roof over most of it, but just worried about the sides. Most of the coops I see in the coop section have exposed 2x4's.
I've been lurking online for a while now trying to do all my research before I pitch the idea to my wife. We live in the suburbs so I'm thinking a chicken tractor will work the best for us. Do those of you with tractors worry about the sprinklers? I've seen some really nice plans and designs...
