5x7 is what I remember.....not that 1" makes much difference.I believe @azygous said hers were 5"x 8". Someone jump in and correct me if I'm wrong. I'll need to be making mine soon too, so it's probably a good thing to find out at this point!
We actually discussed this in another thread, it would work very well with my partition wall, like creep feed situation for larger livestock....Here's an interesting thought...I recently read about someone who has a long pop door the entire length of the coop, like a long board that lifts up and lets all her chickens duck into the coop at any given point along that wall. Says it helps them when under attack from hawks because there's no bottleneck at the pop door. Wonder if this would help y'all in your creeper for the chicks as well....could be they could use it more effectively if they don't have to search for that opening when in a panic and being chased by the big gals. Just one big slit under which to duck. What y'all think?![]()
....but ...couple issues, bedding height might interfere and older birds grabbing chicks feet/legs under wall.
