I have had my 5 chickens since early spring '16 in a small coop set up from Tractor Supply and they also have free range. However I have to practically stand on my head to clean the coop and wanted something I could stand up in. So I am taking about 4' x 6' of my storage barn ( I store furniture, decor items, etc to be changed out seasonally in this) to use for an area for my chickens. There is a window in the area and has wood siding and floor. However I am trying to decide if the divider walls (to separate from storage area) should be of plywood or just wire? I plan to put heavy plastic on the floor covered with sand. But I'm wondering if flies/dust/oders would be greater in storage area with wire/screen or less likely with plywood walls. I'd enjoy input from everyone. Thanks
