Mo's Cattle Panel Hoop Coops

Very nice hoop coop! I love the "panels attached on the inside" idea. The link was helpful and there was lots of pictures.

I am waiting for the sequel. The pictures give a lot of build info. Thanks Mo! I finally feel confident to build, and in the comments there is a great cost breakdown. My pullets will have a secure spot with a roof you have saved many innocent pullet lives Mo

funtional

Thank you, this could be just what I need for a better extension on the run! We're expecting that they'll have to be kept indoors shortly, because of avian flu, so I've covered their 'back garden' area.
I searched all over the internet for a frame for my old polytunnel cover and never thought of using heavy-duty mesh like that!
In the end, I bought a cheap plastic greenhouse but the cover tore straight away and I don't think the frame will stand up to the winter winds. I'm relieved that now I have a better plan.

I've used this article to build something similar. I haven't run into many problems not covered in the article.

I love how you did this .. Great photos the plumber tape is genius.

Thank you. I have 15 new chick coming and was looking for the right coop to build. This just might do it.

Wonderful! Very good visuals and written descriptions. I really like the idea of plummer straps and the hwc going on before the cp. Well done.

it looks good

I can't wait to build one of my own. My flock is about to double in size and I am needing more room, this is perfect. I really appreciate how you simplified your documentation and I don't have to fire up the flux cappacitor to start construction. This design is totally customizable and can be modified to house and protect anything, not to mention expandable. Once the frame is built and cattle pannels installed it could be more permanent with a concrete slab poured into the base frame. This style of coop can be built on any budget, make it as simple or as extravagant as you want.

Moving the majority of my flock to my neighbor's yard. Coop is a temp structure that can be broken down and moved as neither she nor I can move the more permanent versions on the hilly and very uneven terrain where we live.
However, even so your article was very informative and full of ideas. Some to be incorporated now and some in the future!
Thank you for taking the time to put together such a good piece!

that is awesome!!!

Very nice builds. You do a very good job protecting your helpless birds!
