    Metal coop (Bay Area, California)

    Hello. I’m considering getting this metal shed and converting it into a coop. Do any of you have a set up like this? I’m concerned that it will turn into an oven. Besides cutting more ventilation into it, does anyone have other conversion ideas I would need to make? Thanks
