Well I've limped along for quite a while with a broken automatic door. Hardly had it a month and had to fix it twice which meant taking the grouping of 3 nest boxes down off the wall to get to it. Second time it broke I was really through with it but one of the other things I noticed is that it didn't seal very well so could really blow in the cold air around it making it colder in the coop during colder weather.
Guess I have to go into run any way so having an automatic door doesn't seem necessary. The door that's there is guillotine style (which after using one, I don't recommend that style) and I prop a wooden piece of trim to hold it up although a couple of times, they've knocked it out SO any thoughts?? Thanks again!
