Did you build your own coop or buy one already made?

I got lucky and inherited the coop when we bought our house. Previous owners built it themselves.

We bought one - from Amazon! - and its a bit small for our 4 girls so we are building our own. It'll have some built in storage and easy access to the waterer and feeder.

I actually bought a coop and run via a facebook yardsale group for 100.00



The run is made of a steel carport frame and is wrapped in welded wire with chicken wire along the bottom. The coop seen here is about 2 1/2 feet off of the ground and since this picture, has been enclosed. In the spring, the coop will probably either be replaced with a 8x10 barn or will be expanded.

I build my own, two of them. But one rooster decided to move his hens into the goat shed.

My husband built an amazing coop with no blue prints.....

We built ours and we love it. So do the neighbors, since we live in town and it's visible from the street on two sides.

We re-purposed a greenhouse that came with the property to a coop. Now I kind of wish I had my greenhouse back

. But, it's huge enough for (almost) all the birds I want to have, so that's a good thing.

We built ours. Neighbors call it the Little Red Cabin.
