Henhouse repair advice

It’s time I repaired the roof on the nest box before getting some new hens. Any advice on choice of wood appreciated.

It has been a long time since I had a wooden coop, but I am sure when we did build one years ago we used waterproof plywood.

It is expensive but lasted years as a roof.  We also had onduline roofing sheet on top of it, rather than roofing felt, but you would need to check on a nest box that you could still open it properly before installing that.
