I'm interested in building a coop based on the Wichita Cabin design, but have a question about roofing material. I've seen some that use "clear" roofing material and wondering how that affects heat in the coop. I'm in Chicago, so it seems like it might be good for warming the coop in winter, but would it get too hot in the summer. There are trees around where I'm planning to build it, so maybe that would help in the summer.

Thoughts?

It would be best if you started your own thread in the Coop & Run Construction forum vs. asking a random question in a new member introduction thread. You'll get much more help that way. Good luck with your coop build!
