For anyone who says 'I don't have to worry I have mine up on cement blocks' you need to get pressure treated wood and put that between the cement block and the wood. Concrete blocks are flat, water sits on top of them, goes into the wood, the concrete dries and pulls it back out and that constant in and out of water will destroy wood very quickly. Coops that are directly on the ground will also not last long if the wood has not been treated and the bottom is the most vulnerable point. How many people paint the feet? I would guess not too many flip the thing upside down and paint the feet so the wood is unprotected. That's my tip for what it's worth - I hope that helps someone.
