Ok, hubby is finally motivated to get this coop done. We've had a temporary setup for a month now. It's a large room in the barn, 14x40. I'm trying to get him to go SIMPLE, not go building every blasted thing by hand. I just want plastic bins, litterpans etc for nest boxes, he wants to build something. If anyone has pics of their PLASTIC next boxes, I'd love them so I can show him. I feel like these are easier to clean than a permanent wood next box setup.
Next, how high is good for roosts? We can go as high as we want! But I'm thinking waist high, maybe a lower one?
How high for the nest boxes? I'm thinking ground level or maybe 12 inches up? A poop board just above the boxes so they cant poop ON the boxes, and a roost over that.
