What's the temperature where you are???

Time to start lining the coop with insulation. I hope the mice don't eat it up. The Rockwool is suppose to be mouse resistant.

And I have a couple boxes of Borax if the mice get hungry. If that doesn't work, I'll be using baking soda.

Lol sounds like a plan!

Maybe the rockwool will give them indigestion or worse lol! I need to do the same here. It helps some here that I built our coop on the east side of our pole barn. Unless of course the east wind fires up!

Our winds are typically from the SW...

Lately here blowing out of the N / NW with a real bite to them! We get quite a few straight out of the east too.

I have a woods behind my coop, so they are protected from the wind in that direction.

The only thing that makes me nervous is when the winds kick up, is the 200 ft tall cottonwood trees behind the coop.

Cottonwoods have shallow roots

Yeah wind protection on at least one side is a big plus! Yeah, those cottonwood trees would make me nervous too!
