I'm building my coop in a corner of my shed. http://links.pictures.aol.com/pic/b360zF79YOTbwXk3JjKl9I8uU8nOuG0J6cinv4xQp5Fd3Ig=_l.jpg http://links.pictures.aol.com/pic/b360zF79YOTbwXk3JjKl9I8uU-3CTvXvdmtqv4xQp5Fd3Ig=_l.jpg http://links.pictures.aol.com/pic/1570c7sz3D2ng*567B8hwDaFyfPgfI9HRativ4xQp5Fd3Ig=_l.jpg I was thinking of using the shelfs for the nesting area. It's roughly 45 inches from the floor. My questions are 1) will the chickens nest over an entryway? 2) I was thinking of building thier roost, like a wide ladder and leaning it against that wall, to help them get up there easier, or would that be a no-no? Thanks for your help. Ray
P. S. Here's a shot of the run/shed area. The chain link will hve deer netting and a tarp covering it. The black fenced area will be the free range area, in the evenings and weekends.
