So I'm basically in Raleigh NC. Summers are hot humid and miserable some days.
My coop is in progress and i want to make sure I have enough ventilation.
I'm thinking of making the entire front wall or most of the front wall (that will face the dog kennel that is their run) out of hardware cloth for ventilation and a big window in the back (that could be closed in the winter). One side will be the door to access for cleaning and the other side will have nesting boxes. The two walls without windows will have vents across the top.
I wish I had my drawings with me but they are at work!
Does this sound like enough ventilation? I figure in the winter if it is too wet I can close windows and cover with tarps if I need to.
Thanks for the advice.
