I know the topic of "is cedar ok for coops" has been covered a million times here. I have searched the forums with no luck as far as determining what kinds of cedar (actual or otherwise) is "bad" for chickens.
I planned to make coops out of Eastern White Cedar (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thuja_occidentalis, which is really a false cypress) and would like to know if there is any information regarding the so-called toxic fumes that emit from various types of wood.
I have seen cedar coops (not sure what kind) but can't understand how they are made/sold if they kill chickens.
Any insight is appreciated.
