My husband and I turned part of our shed/garage into a new coop for our chickens. We added two nesting boxes, a 46 inch in length roost which is 3 inches wide for them and sand for the floor( all-purpose from homedepot). There's still a little more to do I think, like add a window/more light. There's no window in that area of the shed and the light we do use doesn't light that side up much..We have 5 chickens (leghorns) who are now 3 years old. And have been in a coop from tractor supply since they could be outside. What is the best way to get them use to the new coop. We placed them on the roost last night, which is why they are in it. They don't seem to be a fan of the sand.The coop door leads out to their run which has the old coop still attached. The old coop is closed so they can't get into it.
