you can have the coop a foot off the ground that would probably help but if a rat wants in a RAT WANTS INI just read where someone said you have to have the coop a foot off the ground. Is that true? I never knew that.

we have always had our coops a couple of feet off the ground anyway,,,,chickens usually like to roost up on something high, so this makes sense ...you can have the coop a foot off the ground that would probably help but if a rat wants in a RAT WANTS IN
I have a bunch of chicken coops and only the tractor is off the ground enough that rats can't get into it. The other two sit on the ground and I have had only one problem with rats.

don't you lock your chucks away at night, I mean lock them in - we do ? Nothing could get in my coop once the door is shut.....Yeah, we have a big garden beside the chicken coop. I figured they could crawl up and into a coop if they wanted too.
Our run and coop is fenced in....but I have always locked the coop door too...as a precaution...No. We don't lock them in. The whole run and coop is fenced in. Only thing that could get in is something small like a rat.
