Hi everyone! Again I'm sorta new to this and need some help. I've got 5 sexlinks, 1 leghorn & 4 Plymouth Rocks. In my coop my nesting boxes are about 36" high (cause I have a bad back) and I have a roost about 36" high and 1 about 5 feet. Is everything ok or is it to high? I raised the top roost after this pic was taken so it would be slightly higher than the boxes.My girls are about 15 weeks old. Help

:)
 
The only problem with high roosts, which they will love, is having enough room on the side to sort of half fly down, to prevent a hard landing. From the pic I'd say you have plenty of room.
