angle of ramp?

[btoutcheque]

our coop is fairly high off the ground I was wondering what was the recommended angle of the ramp coming out the pop door?im afraid it will be too steep?

How high is it? Mine is pretty high and they have no problem. My nest and poop board are fairly high as well. I would measure but it is raining. They do well without it being ADA compliant

A good rule of thumb in a perfect world:
Make your ramp twice as long as the drop which would give you a 6/12 pitch or an angle of 22.5º.
"Adding a block attached to the end of your ramp (the higher the better) to make a step up will do a lot to reduce the slope."
It may also allow you to reduce the length of your ramp.

Good advice^^^
Mine have 16" concrete blocks under low end.
