Hey all,
So I found a buffet deck/hutch Free on the side of the road some months ago. We intended to use it in our dining room but it wasn't working out, so we are putting it in the coop as a nesting box apartment!
I'm going to add the contrasting coral color to the primed panels today. But the FINISHING touch is going to have to be a way to keep those birds from roosting on it!
I'd like some ideas.
A couple things I'm thinking up are- Gluing objects uncomfortable to their feet up top. (And ideas as to what objects might work? Glass bottles? Brick-a-brack from thrift stores?)
Tacking chicken wire slanted up the wall (would like to avoid this due to eyesore)
When I considered rods too narrow for their feet, I considered they might just stand in-between the rods.
Is there anything chickens really don't like to step on?
Thanks in advance ya'll!
