I'm planning to,convert at least half my shed here into a chicken coop. It has power and is built on a concrete slab. What do y'all suggest? This will be my first time. (infosec.pub)

It’s 12’ square and I think 12’ high at the peak.

I suggest ducks. Stink less, less noise, can be trained to come out of the coop to forage in the yard and return... The only real downside is less frequent eggs.

I hear duck shit is much more trouble than chicken shit.

I can't imagine something worse than chicken shit. I'm curious on what you think makes it troublesome.
