All the credit goes to patandchickens!
I just came across it myself today and realized how great it would have been to know that in the beginning.
It's tough to get the whole 'draft-free ventilation' thing just right and this is good stuff!
Thanks patandchickens!

I printed this page out long ago & placed it in my 'chicken info' folder so I had a quick reference...it is well done, as are the postings on the threads.
My advice is...Give Heed To patandchickens suggestions, they are helpful!

I really ought to take some photos to illustrate it with, so I can remove the 'under construction' disclaimer
