Bottom-Entry Chicken Coop Door

[AUChick9202]

I would like to put a bottom-entry door on our coop that I am building. Any advice on how to design it to keep the bedding from just falling out?

As far as I know this is a very bad design. One of the reasons is what you mention. I'm sure others will chime in

Thanks! That is why I ask...I figured better make a design change now than changing having to change it later

Yup!

...and it eats up floor space in the coop
