Well, with the key word "winter", that is a common search term here at BYC, the thread comes and goes when it is needed. The words "ventilation" and "coop" are throughout the thread so helps it pop up in searches too.

Oh that red thing in the back is the TSC cheap little coop (not price wise) and was a quick fix as I had two days before the lady giving me the hens was moving to get some accommodations for them and it was early Feb. They still roost inside... will use it as a brooder later but put it inside so they got used to the Open air coop while I built it!!
Evidently they like it as they tricked me into thinking they had stopped laying when I got the rooster.... they hid the eggs UNDERNEATH the nestbox overhang of the little coop in the litter of the woods coop! There were seven under there when I figured it out.
