for lots of eggs....

We all know I think that V doesn't have enough venting...

but, here I am, all crazy about venting, and I have, at a guess ... ok, I calculated

I have 7,008 square inches of vents, that is 584 square feet, right?

is that right?

Well, I don't have 500 chickens, so I am good.

except that there is no way I did that math correctly....


is it only 48.7 square feet of vent??

that would be about 1 foot per chicken... I think, not sure, but it sounds good.
 
my henhouse run has plenty of venting lol it's kinda and outside aviary to the henhouse lol...but otherwise I have the roofline venting and the two side window ventings...smell doesnt build up it seems to have fine airflow the humidity doesnt get any higher then it is outside..
 
Well, the nap didn't work for me either.....I went out to check for eggs & let the girls out to free range and

WE GOT 38 EGGS TODAY!!!!!
That's a record for us!

We have 40 hens. They must've had some sort of meeting or heard me talking about butcher day (for the roos). But after getting all excited about the eggs, I couldn't find our little dog! So, I walked (quickly) down the street both ways yelling my head off for him. No doggie

. After about 1/2 hour of walking back and forth and screaming my head off, I went back to the coop. Poor doggie was standing right by the coop with mud caked 1/2 way up his legs. He had went into the coop looking for me & it's impossible to hear anything back there over all the chickens. But I am SO glad he is OK

wow holy smokes thats awesome what you gonna do with all them eggs lol? haha on the mia dog being in the coop.. I had wondered if that mighta happened right up till you said lol that would be my luck
 
Jem, hope everything went well at the hospital.

Sam, my run has about a square foot per bird. The coop has four 10cm/4" round vents, two down low for air intake, two at the highest point to let air out. And the pop door stays open pretty much all the time, it's about a square foot.
thanks it went well..and was soo lovely warm too...
