Brand new chicken farmers here. This is a coop a local guy built for us. I'd like your inputs and what, if anything, we should adapt or change. Mt big Q is, should I replace the 1x1s he used for roosts to be 2x4s? My husband is going to add a 8x10 run with hardware cloth and a roof. Should the run go from the chicken door (on the left side) out or should the chickens be able to go under the coop? We live in western NC and are planning on eventually having 8-12 chickens; starting with 6. Any advice is welcome!
