Chicken

[Marshmallow1234]

So today spent whole afternoon changing the coop. Adding a wood roof with tarp on it so run is dry. Will add more ventilation tmrw and nesting box made of wood. I added a small roosting bar for coop and a big one for the run but I’ll let them out in the run since it’s predator proof. What do think?

The bar seems like it will be good for them

Simple yet effective.

That’s great. But only one chicken sleeps on it and the 2 sleep on the nest

Some do that. They may all begin to roost once they get used to it. My calico kept in the nest boxes until she was laying and being bred. Then she roosted with her mate

That roosting bar looks a little uncomfortable. https://www.yourchickens.co.uk/care-and-advice/the-perfect-perch-1-2842822
