Ramp Info Needed

[meowteri2]

Can some of you tell me the proper width for the ramp from the groung to my coop. Itwill be at about 32 degrees. Also what spacing do you use on the slats
and what size of slats do you use. I have 2 ISA BROWNS and 1 BARRED ROCK.

I don't think I've ever read a recommendation about this. I just made mine wide enough so that if they crowded there would be enough room for them to not get pushed off and hurt (about 18"). And I think the slats are for better footing, they don't use it like a ladder( Maybe 10-12"). Mostly mine jump and flap their way up and down it.
