bumble bees nesting inside coop wall

[mylittlefarmhouse]

I've notice big fuzzy bumble bees going in and out of a hole that was a knot in the cedar siding of my coop. They are not inside but in between the exterior wall and the interior wall. Could this be an issue for my flock? I promote saving the bees and won't do anything to harm them but I just want to make sure that my hens will be okay if they disturbed this potential nest.

Are you sure they are bumble bees??? Your description does match. I do have some in my area, but they do not make nests/hives like Yellow jackets, and wasps. My bumble bees do not bother people or chickens. I remove, and eliminate wasp nests. I do not bother honey bees that are also present in my yard. I do know where they live also.

Big fat fuzzy ones? Carpenter Bees won't hurt much.
Or yellow jacket wasps?
ID the 'bee'....pics would help but hard to get.

If you know for sure they are bumble bees, be careful. You DO NOT want to disturb a bumble bee hive. Call an exterminator.

Carpenter bees would be boring their own holes in the siding not using an existing hole.
