Coop ventilation

[katiegoodrow]

Hello! This is a pre fab coop we got for our two chickens. Would love to know if you guys think this is enough ventilation. We also live in Maine so it will be cold this winter so I worry about drafts but this doesn't seem like it's enough. It's that little door about 2 inches by 6 inches.

I would think it would be enough if they are just in there for the night.

It is very cute! Plan to have the openings open most or all of the time for ventilation. Some plastic wrapped around the run, and roofing it, will give them more room even when it snows. mary

Looks great, should make your birds happy. I was looking at a prefab unit but it was more then I wanted to spend, so I made my own. The winters are cold here in the Eastern part of Washington state so in a few months I will be insulating it so the birds don't freeze. It's only 8'x12' but should do the trick.
