Is it best to put divider walls between each nest ?

This is the outside with top that raises to get eggs.

Should the inside be painted. Especially the 2x4's they will roost on.

I don't think it is necessary to divide the nesting area into individual nest boxes.

Might be easier to clean painted, but I think that is your choice too.

BTW- What's the story on the words drilled into the wall above the nests?

Looks like it says HAPPY HEXS, just curious??????

Yes. Happy Hens !! My husband was going to drill holes for ventilation. I mentioned naming the coop. He was all for it. I think once we are finished and get it all painted and cleaned up you will be able to read it better.
