Just realized how much my coop setup has changed since I started
I was reading an old post from 2018 where someone was really proud of their single roost bar and one nesting box for 5 hens. It made me think about my first coop, which was basically the same. Now I've got 3 different roost heights, two boxes per 4 hens, and a whole dust bath area I built last spring. The biggest shift was learning they need more space and things to do, not just a roof. What's one thing you added to your coop that you'd never go back to not having?

Yeah I saw a blog post once that said bored chickens can get mean. Adding some stumps and a hanging cabbage for them to peck at made a huge difference for my flock.
