Thank you so much! The photos are quite helpful.These were made from pet playpen panels. They're removable as they clip into place, but I tend to just open them up when not in use.

And fully opened when not using to integrate chicks.View attachment 3448530
All my grow out pens look about the same. Always part of its wind sheltered, usually under the nest boxes. Completely removable but usually just locked open when not using. And a grate that can be added or removed to open or close the baby doors.
Here's one in a banty coop.

Not in use it's folded open. The white pieces of wood swing up and down to hold or release the panels.View attachment 3448535
So it looks like you modified the ex pen to create the baby doors by cutting out some of the bars, is that correct?
I have a couple ex-pens but not sure if I want to do that or perhaps make use of a dog crate. I found a large used crate for $20. Will have to figure something out.
Thanks again for posting the photos!
