What color of paint for inside of coop?

The dark colors in my coop shows dirty faster than the the light colors in my coop. But it may be because the dark is bright tar black and the light is a soft green that was a little way in the grayish spectrum to start with. The light color softens into a grayer color much less obviously.

Pick a color you like.
 
I like to try and find a pleasant color in the oops paint before even looking at full price paint.

I got a 5 gallon bucket of a very soft green for $35. I used it to paint inside my own house with enough left over for the coops.
A one gallon at Home Depot runs $9 and is just as good as a custom mix at $35+.

That said I do prefer the lighter colors inside the coops.
 
This is easy, an off shade of blue . I thought everyone who likes chicken knows about cordon blue.

She's definitely a little off color since she needs to molt. (Cordon the Blue Australorp is the chicken on the left).

I won't tell her she's famous. She's already top hen and it would go to her head.

I just got two mistinted gallons of Benjamin Moore in the exact color I had picked for mine (off white / cream) and a gallon of the same color in porch & floor paint for the coop floor! So with a gallon of med. green porch & floor for the poo boards and roosts, the poopiest parts might not show so much. I once painted an entire house interior with mistints that I mixed and changed up. Love the Oops section! :)
