Coop from scrap

[catdaddy66]

OK, I guess I can repost this, since it was last YEAR!!

I like my coop but need to correct some deficiencies that have come to light.

Well we have walls now.

The floor will be 1/2" conveyor belt covered with wood shavings.

have you used conveyor belt before. I have some stall matting that is bascally the same thing and was wondering how it woul work as a floor covering.

Suggest you build with screws. I had to remodel my interior after the chickens declared their preferences.

I used it for my stalls but DH said it should work great. I won't have to worry about anything digging through the floor. The only thing that could come through this stuff would be a Kodiak.

Why? What did they say about nails?
