I’m thinking the coop is undersized. Rule of thumb is 4 sqft per bird in coop. 10 in run. Also, one sqft of ventilation per bird.
I’m betting they are staying close to the pop door because the air moves through it and isn’t hot and stuffy. After it cools down, it’s dark and they aren’t able to go elsewhere.
Yeah we were Afraid they would out grow it before we could move and have a bigger one. We were to move twice now and our new home build is taking way longer to begin and come along due to covid and stuff.
This was the only size our landlord would allow us. But they entered it sooo little and still slept at doorway.
how can we make it work til we move 3-4 months still ?!?
