I am building a new barn/ coop and my old coop is elevated about 18 inches and the chickens like being under it when it is hot.
My question is : Is it OK to wall off 2 sides of the area under the coop floor, and hardware cloth the other 2 sides or do you think they would then lay eggs under there as it would be darker and less airy. I was going to do that for appearance only so that the front and side view looked more like a regular barn.
