That would bother me. I'd be tempted to knock out the window and put a new one in, or just cover it with hardware cloth in the summer and throw some plexiglass over it in the winter.

Haha free is free. Doesn't bother me as it's just a door that I didn't have to buy.

Very true!

Perhaps run a bead of sealant on the outside, and maybe it'll dry out someday? I guess if you don't mind it, I shouldn't. It's just a thing with me, as when we started nearly a decade ago, we dealt with weeping windows. We fixed that, and now it's a dry coop.

Perhaps. Its a dry coop, thankfully I know how to build stuff fairly well, need to throw some insulation or something in the rafter areas to keep snow from blowing in during winter storms but keep the airflow going.

Its okay was expecting to lose one or two was just glad it wasnt more especially being a first timer I was trying to make sure I did the stuff right when doing my brooder setup. But they are thriving these days and my friends and family love the eggs we give them, at about a dozen a day we give away quite a bit. Might try selling next spring when we have extras. The myriad of browns we have is cool and the EE green eggs add a nice contrast.

Sounds like you are taking pretty good care of them! 🙂
