Operating Instructions
Chicken Access
The built-in ramp allows your chickens to move freely between the elevated sleeping area and the ground-level run. Ensure the ramp is clear of obstructions and that chickens can easily navigate it.
Nesting Box Use
The dual nesting boxes are designed for egg-laying. Encourage your hens to use them by providing soft, clean bedding material such as straw or wood shavings. Eggs can be easily collected by opening the nesting box lid.
Ventilation
Two sliding windows on the sides of the coop facilitate airflow. Adjust these windows as needed to ensure proper ventilation, especially during warmer weather, to maintain a healthy environment for your flock.
Maintenance and Cleaning
Daily Cleaning
A built-in slide-out tray is provided for easy collection of droppings and waste. Regularly pull out and clean this tray to maintain hygiene within the coop and prevent odor buildup.

Deep Cleaning
For thorough cleaning and maintenance, a back door provides easy access to the interior of the coop. Periodically clean the entire structure, including walls and flooring, to prevent the buildup of bacteria, parasites, and pests.
Weather Protection
The waterproof roof and painted fir wood construction offer protection from the elements. However, regular inspection for wear and tear, especially after severe weather, is recommended to ensure the longevity and integrity of the coop.
Troubleshooting Common Issues
Chickens Not Using Nesting Boxes
Ensure nesting boxes are clean, dark, and filled with comfortable bedding. Placing a fake egg in the box can sometimes encourage hens to use them. Reduce disturbances around the nesting area.
Poor Ventilation
Check that sliding windows are open and not obstructed. Ensure the coop is not placed in an area with stagnant air. Consider adding additional ventilation if necessary, while ensuring predator protection.
Predator Concerns
Verify all lockable doors are securely latched every night. Inspect the wire mesh regularly for any damage or gaps that could allow predators entry. Reinforce weak points if identified.
