Hello,
Through a fiasco at Home Depot where they sold me a wooden shed that they no longer carry I am forced to consider other options. They have a metal shed but I know metal would be way too hot for the chickens in the Tennessee summer. My question is whether or not putting up plywood in the interior would regulate the temperature enough to make it tolerable for them. Of course I'd cut plenty of ventilation holes in as well as a chicken door. For the most part they will be free-range during the day and put up at night.
Would this be OK or should I keep looking for a totally wooden building? They have a bigger sized wood shed that costs more- I'd love to avoid spending the money if possible though.
Thank you all for your opinions!
