Care:
You can paint or seal your coop with just about any water-based product. Some people don’t want chemicals in contact with their hens.
Unsealed cedar will last outdoors for many years, better than almost any other wood. Painting or sealing can certainly prolong that life and
keep the wood from going naturally grey. An unsealed coop could easily last 10+ years with modest upkeep, and a sealed coop may last
longer than that. Clean wood with mild detergent and water or with a commercially available coop cleaner as needed. Glues used in all
joints are completely waterproof, and all metal parts are galvanized or have exterior rated coatings. Clean coops make for happy healthy
hens. :)
Placement:
Easy access to water and clear access to egg door and roost door is recommended. Flat, level high ground is best. Some sunlight is not all
bad. The Galvalume roof does a good job at not transferring heat and provides shade, and sunlight does a good job at disinfecting the
ground under the coop. Good air movement around your coop is more important than anything else.
Tips:
The welded wire is stronger than almost any predator smaller than a bear. :) If you’re worried about diggers, stack heavy block-shaped
rocks around perimeter of coop to make getting under more difficult. You can also attach a strip of wire that extends out from the bottom
rails, and bury it below the surface of the soil. Use a door mat and pine wood shavings or shredded paper in egg box to make laying eggs
more comfy for your hens.
More About Cedar:
Your coop is built from rough cut North American Western Red Cedar. Wood deemed defective is culled during fabrication (about 5%-10%).
Knots, blemishes, coloring variations, minor surface cracking, slight warping and occasional worm marks are normal parts of rough cedar.
We try to make it to where a reversible part always has a “pretty side” and take care to make the “pretty side” show on all parts. If you’re
unhappy with a piece of wood we fabricated into your coop, send us a picture. We want you to love every piece of your new coop.
