Could chickens get through a gap 18cm square ?
Have recently converted my Grandkids old (plastic) garden playhouse into a coop for our 4 girls (soon to be 6 once the 'rescued' battery hens are through quarantine and integrated).
Reason I ask about 18cm is that either side of the house door there are square framed panels that look ideal to be cut through to fit an automatic up/down door on a timer so we don't have to keep going up to put them away and getting up at dawn to let them out...........advice please !!
