<strong><i>Question by colorhappy</i>: Is it okay to have one end of a chicken coop covered by mesh wire, yet open to the elements?</strong>
My partner built a wooden chicken coop, and one end is covered with chicken wire mesh. Is that going to be protected and heat enough? Or should the whole coop be enclosed by wood?


<strong>Best answer:</strong>
<p><i>Answer by Bobby D</i><br>It really relies upon on where you live. In the northern part of the country, it will not be heat enough for them. You'll just have to set some wood over the mesh, that should be okay.</p>
