Hi I was wondering what height most people have their coop off the floor?

I've done mine about 2 foot but Mrs Jambo has said it's too high!?! I was hoping to have the food and water under it so it's sheltered but the run is going to have a roof on it as well so that might not be a big issue?? View attachment 2208797
Mine is 32". To prevent the ramp from being too long and protruding out into the yard, i gave it a landing and had it "turn the corner" back along the side of the coop.
Works great!
No predators.
Natural dusting spot.
Protection from sun, rain and snow.
Birds can either take the ramp or fly down without issue.
High enough to prevent pests (rats, groundhogs, etc) from living under it.
 
Mine is 30". The nesting beds are waist level to gather eggs with doors that fold out and the chickens love to go under the coop in the shade. I can scoop and clean into the wheelbarrow easily. Under the coop is all chicken-wired and cross wired -
