Would be interesting to see what it reads way up high.I put my remote temp/humidity sensor at the same height as my chicken roost - so about 5 feet off the floor of the coop.

I was wondering if maybe it would be better to have the covering above their heads to avoid the cold air coming in on top of them.just a thought.That is what I was considering. Putting a loft covering about half the coop on the side opposite of where the chickens roost. That way, the mass of the air volume above their heads is still open.

Sounds like a plan, but don't be surprised if they find a way to get up there, especially if your roosts are along the long sides. Mine are always looking to get to the highest possible point when they are ready to roost.That is what I was considering.

Lol! I watched that episode, and hated their coop!One of the most hilarious examples was a version of the Purina coop built by non other than the experts on Good Old House. They did an excellent job of building what may have been one of the worst coop designs ever concocted.
