Finished My First Chicken Coop Today

Yes, I certainly like the coop, but needs ventilation. Lots of it. I was going to ask how they'll breathe!

Ventilation isn't that hard. As patandchickens says, "Go cut holes in your coop!"

Very attractive!

Its so cute

I agree on the more ventilation thing though.

I drilled holes under the eaves and put wire mesh windows on both sides. Is that enough ventilation or do I need to put wire on the front or back? Thanks, ET

patandchickens has a good equation for figuring out just how much ventilation you need. Check her page out the next chance you get, what we think is enough never seems to be

Ok, in this picture on the right side. The 2 boards closes to the top. If you could cut both of those in half lengthwise and then reinstall them with wire attached it should give you plenty of ventilation

ETA---Then you can draw up some plans and send them too me!! This would be perfect for my bantams!!
