OK, so I have read that ideally the roost should be 18" from the wall. Other than a dirty wall, what other problems would I have if I put my roost 12" from the wall? I am getting standard size hens and I do want to preserve as much open space as I can because I am in MN and I am concerned about winter space. I really, really want a drop board but if I have my roost 18", well then wouldn't the drop board have to be 30"? Do the birds walk under the drop board OK if it was 24" off the ground? I am having a devil of a time trying to figure out the layout of my hen house.
Thanks,
Lisa
