This product works great for our 15 chickens who reside in it. It comes with the frame, chicken wire, connector pieces, zip ties, and wire. The instructions are almost non-existent. It took 2 people and 14 hours to build it, mainly because it is very challenging to figure out how to build it...
The overall size is 3’ wide by 18’ long by 6’ tall. The coop itself is 3’x 6’x 4’ and raised 19” off the ground. Made to house 3-6 chickens.
My coop building adventure begins here in the Pacific Northwest, a few miles west of Portland, Oregon. Many years ago I owned horses and rented a...
Hello. My name is Rian. I am a DIY'er and was on Pintrest looking for ideas for a small to med sized Pigeon loft/chicken coop. I live in MN. My hobbies are landscaping and gardening, and pets. I have raised chickens and pigeons when i was a kid. I now have my own place on the out skirts of a...
Still in progress. My husband is doing all the building, and I'm doing all the cosmetics. I was very specific on what I wanted/needed as far as function and ease of cleaning, though my husband made a few changes he did keep my requests in his build. One end has a storage space for all their feed...
We've been planning this coop for a while now, and it finally happened! I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!
We started it about two weeks ago, but haven't been able to work on it because of all the rain we have been getting! It was crazy! We got the four main posts up with concert in the...
Hi,
We started out with a small chicken coop from Home Depot, after a 6 months the house seemed too small for our two chickens. We did some research and figured it would be best to just have our coop built, instead of purchasing another larger house for the girls. The guy we had built our coop...
This is the semi final coop after 3-4 revisions to keep adding footage. We started out with a 4x4 foot inside and a 4x10 foot run underneath. Then I added on another 4x4, 2 story area with the wooden door. That then became a duplex with the big girls on top and babies on the bottom. Eventually...
Hello everyone! My name is Terry. My wife of 32 years, Cheryl is an incredible cook and has always wanted chickens of her own so she can get those beautiful brown fresh eggs. In the spring of 2016 we brought that into reality. We'll start this story with some photos of the finished coop and run...
Like many, I started with just a couple chickens. Each year I get a couple more and I don't think that will change any time soon. With that in mind, it was time to upgrade my little coop. My original Coop ~~> https://www.backyardchickens.com/a/the-habitat-hut-re-used-furniture-coop

Hi All!! I just wanted to add in some Coop photos. Our Chicken house is close to being completed. The actual chicken area is 10x16, it also has a feed room/egg access doors in a 4x10 area, and a 4x10 front porch.
We started building the coop in the shop.
Two coats of paint. We used...
How to make a chicken run without tools.
You only need a pair of scissors or a knive to cut the rope. And some glue.
Last year I decided to make our old pop up gazebo / party tent of 3x3 meters into a extra run for my chickens.
This is how I started:
And this is the result:
Because the...
I've wanted chickens since I was a baby but my mom didn't. Then my brother got some weird disease where he can't eat almost anything from the store so she let me buy chickens so he could have eggs that were free ranged, so I bought 15 originally all that they had left 10 barred rock and 5 black...
The 1st photo is when the coup was just completed. The secondary pictures were from today. Kind of embarrassed about the mess, but it's cold here so we have to do heavy Spring cleaning after the thaw. It was coated with Linseed Oil to protect the would, Electric was added to accommodate a light...
After stalking all the fabulous, well-thought-out and downright gorgeous chicken coop plans on here, I laugh at little at posting this homely, but functional and portable chicken shelter. I hope that someone can at least get some ideas from my work.
The goal: To build a shelter that would...
My son Caleb who is building this coop for me because I am temporarily disabled aptly named the coop, and I let it stick.
This first picture is a shot from last night after he got the framework up for the outside run. Looking good, just need to reinforce in a few spots, and get the wire...
It rains a lot here in east TN, so I decided on a waterproof poly construction structure to avoid water damage and red mites infestation typical with wooden coops. Situated on the east facing side of the house for sun/draft protection. Painted and decorated for maximum charm, with real thatch on...
look how ugly it was
my fav part was skid/pallet roof "porch" and that I can collect eggs feed and water without stepping in poop!
Our daughter had fun designing and painting all the fun signs and since it has been finished it has turned
into HER serama saloon for breeding frizzled serama...
My wife had a opportunity to rescue 7 hens and a guinea, the only problem was we didn't have a place to house them and there was a dead line when they had to be moved. Well I had some time off and I hadn't built anything in a long time so I decided to build the girls a place to live.
The design...
Had to add space vertically to my coop for some new additions and minimize the mess for winter months when the chickens would be going out less. (It gets pretty cold in Michigan some times). l saw a post where there were bins below the roosts and decided to try pull out bins with sand in them...
