I used plywood for under roosting bars with food bags over them but now the wood is getting warped. I’m looking for advice on what to use

You need to build and mount a frame with lower supports to which you attach the plywood. Then caulk the corners and either paint the board with a couple of coats of good quality exterior paint or apply a sheet of vinyl flooring to it.

This is the way I built my boards:

I'm assuming this is a poop board -- is it no longer functioning now that the board warped? Pics of the problem?
I have brackets on both sides should I use thicker wood. I do slide them in and out daily

What kind of wood did you use. And the shelves are supported on both sides
