I shared the link to another thread with a heat related problem. How much Doe's it effect your power bill? Gotta ask!
I love the coop! Bravo!
I the condensation retrieval unit!!!! Is that what the ice chest is for?? Or some kind of circulator?
Interesting to say the least.
Would it be too tacky for me to say COOL!?

The a/c unit in the larger coop is a small 5000 BTU window unit, I've noticed no real difference in my bill. The ice chest a/c I made for cooling the pen. It is solar powered. My girls aren't too proud to say: "we are the coolest chicks in Vegas!"

Did you build your coop or buy it?

Thanks, I bought the small wood w nest box, then I expanded the wood coop to make it longer, then built a first floor to make it roomier, then I finally, I bought the red coop on the other side and added a tunnel to connect it! I love tinkering and changing things for them. This is what I started with.
