Does this look like enough ventilation?

[aart]

That one pic doesn't really show enough to assess.
Are the eaves open?
Is there a ridge vent?
Where are the roosts?

You are welcome. I got a lot of advice on BYC. Clearing the ridge vent was stressed. It requires I stand on a chair to get high enough to clear the snow. I just took a picture and it is getting covered again. Because we have the covered run in front of the windows, we can keep the windows open year round. The chickens don't care for the snow. But most of it stayed out today. I keep an eye on the humidity level with a gadget in the coop. There is a picture in my coop build. View attachment 1295086

Did you build this yourself?

I am not sure about the eaves. That is the ridge vent (the black gap). In this model the roosts are in the corner - from one edge to another. It is a stacked roost with 2x4s - the top roost is smaller than the lower roost - it goes from the edge of the corner to the edge of the other corner. The lower roost goes from the backside to the side with the pop door.
I should have taken pics myself, but I looked at it and asked questions later. It is brand new. When I asked about ventilation, this was the pic I was sent. The person answering the questions is not the builder. So, I am not sure they know the answers. From what I am gathering most people do not ask the questions.

I am attaching the brochure pic. Maybe that will help? The windows have hw cloth so they can be opened.
Edited to add that I read the brochure, just says ridge vent. So, I guess that means no eave vents.

No. My brother did the heavy lifting. See the article in my signature. It is nice and works. But knowing what I know now. I would do things differently.

I posted a question there for you.

I have the same exact one for my chickens, I only recommend it from the months October to April or depending where you live and the climate. I had to replace their window with chicken wire when the hot days took over. They were overly panting and I didn't want any deaths to occur since it gets terribly hot in Texas. Otherwise in the cold months its perfect.

You have a quaker style coop? This one has hw cloth on the windows, so they can ne opened to allow air flow.

You should be ale to see light coming up between the rafters at circles.
On the other side of roof too.

You might be able to open them up depending on how they are covered on the outside.

Sorry, I meant the vent in cavemanrich's post. I should of quoted it.
