Hey! Happy Sunday!

Trying to finish up this coop today, the previous owners built it. My husband fixed the leaking roof & I cleaned it all out. Now on to questions:

1.) should we put chicken wire where the gaps are for more ventilation or use wood to predator proof? The front and back already have ventilation.

2.) there are some moisture spots from where the roof leaked and old bedding set. Will this be ok as long as I use a moisture absorbing pellet or wood chip?

3.) what would you recommend for flooring in the coop?

4.) any other suggestions? I am so open to advice !

Thank you!

That open triangle on the side might be good ventilation but due to no roof overhang it will probably let rain/snow inside.
Any chance to extend the roofing?
We have a run that is attaching on that side! I forgot to mention that, so it should be fine right?
