4. Smallish Chicken Hut
Downsizing houses is an emerging trend nowadays--and this doesn't only apply to people's homes. Chicken coops are also downsizing, and not only are they super cute; they're also space-savers! Check out this tiny chicken coop here.
5. The Weekend Coop! (Das Wochenende Hühnerstall)
At the top of our list is a fully-functional chicken coop that only took two days to make!
