How to put light in Formex Snap lock coop?

[aart]

Actual coop measures ~40 x 40"?..by how tall?
How old are your birds?
You could use 2 of the nests(on one side) for feed and water,
as 2 nest is fine for 6 birds laying.
How tall are the nests?

Not sure about coop measurements. Birds are 3.5 months old. Not going to light now.

I'm prepping for winter here in Upstate NY. This is my first time raising chickens and I've gotten great info from this site. I have a dog kennel, 10/10 with roof and a Formex chicken coop inside. Our winters can get pretty cold here and I was wondering if anyone with one of these coops has installed a light in it and how they did it? I'm thinking tarps on two sides of the kennel, back side is against my barn and leave the front open.

I've got six hens living in this setup. During they day, they free range in my fenced in yard. Thanks for any suggestions.

Hi there
Could you use a heat pad they are safer and can be hung or lay against wall
