I will be asking my husband to build me a coop this spring. I am looking to have 8-10 layers and 10 meat birds. We live in Owen Sound, Ontario Canada. What size of coop should we start with. I was thinking 8x8 or 10x10?
Where is a good place to find coop plans? I found this site: http://www.buildingachickencoop.com/?hop=jtwigs
Is it any good? Any other suggestions would be welcome...
With average high/low of -2 to -9 (28-14 F) in the winter will i need to insulate the walls and floors of my coop? I see a lot of coops with screened eves for more ventilation - is that recommended in a cold climate?
Thanks everyone!
