So i am repurposing some dog nesting boxes that were on our property when we moved in 2 years ago. So they are much bigger then they need to be but the were clean and in great shape sonit seemed silly not to use them. Stacked them in the coop and it just took up so much floor space that i knew i have to raise them.
So during my 18mo girls nap today, the 5 year old and i built a bench with some scrap wood i had assembled for the project.
Now they are raised high enough that the chickens can stil use the floor space under them. I have an appx. 8x12 coop for 10 pullets but i hated the idea of cramping them.
Any ideas about how big or wide the “ladder” needs to be for them to get up and down?
I used a rather thin scrap of plywood that is kind of planked as you can see in the picture. Any ideas?
