It's a 4'x4'x4' coop on 2' footings. inside 2 nesting boxes. one perch 16" high. 4'x4'x6' front area 1/2 inch hard wire all around. Total area metal roof. They have a scratch yard 8'x8' chicken wire and fishing net on top. For daytime use. Suggestions!

Looks great!
You're going to want to make bigger ventilation vents on at least two sides and layer some welded wire fencing on the bottom of the chicken wire to prevent large day predators. Chicken wire won't hold up to coons, fogs or coyotes.

I see your point. The back vent has a solar exhaust fan but I might want to put two more vents on the sides. No predators. These are city chickens.

No predators. These are city chickens.

Raccoons, skunks, and even foxes are also city animals.

How many chickens will you have? 16 sq ft isn’t a ton of space.

There are predators. Get a game camera and point it at your coop, you'll be shocked.
