    Large shed refab to Goat/Coop

    Thank you so much! I actually made a post about my concern for the heat that you commented and gave me my ideas to start with! I read your article over and over again to try and get some solid ideas which helped a lot. It's just a limit on what I'm able to and willing to do involving the roof is...

    Large shed refab to Goat/Coop

    Thank you very much! Im excited and love the community so far. I probably wont mess with the structure of the roof too much. Ill probably do the large windows with eavs on each side as suggested by another user and a top spinning vent on the roof. I will probably stay in the 10-15 range. I have...

    Large shed refab to Goat/Coop

    That's a good point. I can probably add more overhang. Would you suggest something alternatively?

    As shown with the red. About that big under the lip on either side. I was also thinking about putting in a top spinning vent for the heat at the top to escape.

    Large shed refab to Goat/Coop

    Thank you for the tip about the lip I'll definitely need to do that for the nesting box and shelf. That's what I meant about the elevated roosting shelf! I saw that on someone else's build and thought it was a great idea! Gonna lip it, add bedding, and a bar parallel above it. For ventilation...

    Thoughts on converting a corner of this shed.

    Not sure if this has been said yet but, with the cost of lumber right now (at least in my area) and other parts and products, for just five hens you could get a small manufactured coop/run. Youd be able to move it around your yard. Something like this or similar. Best Choice Products 70in...

    First Time Chickens and Heat of Oklahoma

    We are converting this very large shed into a goat/coop barn. Only two nigerian dwarfs, then ten hens in their own separated areas. We are doing additional covered ventilation on the siding on either side then a top covered duct for the heat to rise out of. Any additional recommendations?

    Comment by 'KenzieDenas' in article 'Chicken Coop Ventilation - Go Out There And Cut More Holes In Your Coop!'

    We are converting this very large nice shed into a goat/coop. Think we'll add a covered duct on top for the heat to rise out and then covered side vents for air to circulate. We will also be adding enclosed insulation in the siding. Any recommendations for ventilation?
