Coop door size
« on: January 19, 2010, 21:04 »
Hi, is a 15x15cm door big enough for a full size chicken (such as a buff orpington) to fit through?

Thanks

Hi ya

I have two buff orps , and they are really big girls. They almost double the size of some of my larger birds.   They will squeeze through your door - but literally squeeze through - my door is about W20cm x H30cm and when they come through they fill it.

Can you make it any bigger .
Good luck

Thanks for the reply!

Thats good news you've given me. Ill try to add a few cm's in height so that i won't end up with what will look like a broken cuckoo clock.

Much appreciated

the pop hole on my coop is 30cm x 20 cm as well, enough for full size wyandottes to get through.
