Wichita Cabin Coop

I need to extend my present coop but on seeing this I am now going to make from scratch. Your detail is top notch and easy to follow. Excellent construction and tutorial. Thank-you
So enjoyed your story and the photos of coop and everyone. Thank you for the step by step instructions with the pictures for understanding how to build this marvelous coop and run. Very interesting!

Nice coop for free ranging girls!!
I loved this design so much that I bought the plans and built it for myself. With little experience in Sketchup, I managed to print some views for my handyman. he was very resourceful and took it from there. Here's my coop
Want to build a coop in 2021... ❤ Love this coop design :D
Fantastic coop article
This is a great well written coop article. I'd like to see the bit about how many chickens it's designed for up top. The materials list and all the diagrams are great! And I enjoyed the time-lapse video of the construction, with the cheerful "you could do this!" music, and the wandering big blue ball.

I like the windows you added - wondering if those were built from scratch or premade. I paid to have a coop built for us, but I'm thinking it needs more windows and wondering how best to go about it.

The windbreak for snow looks useful for northern people.

I'm totally not a handyman type, and I think I made the best decision to pay coop builders - but this article almost makes me believe I could do it - and if I ever did my own, I'd want to work from an article like this.
This article has it all - detailed instructions on how to build, including a parts and tool list, multiple diagrams and a time-lapse video. Then there are tips on winterizing, spring cleaning and more. It's a long article, but if you skip anything, you'll miss a good piece of information!
This is a super cool coop design, and i love how it shows you how to build it step to step and i love the chicks growing up at the end! super nice coop and because its a coop you have to build you can make the coop bigger or smaller if you want! super cool!
Excellent Article! Lots of pictures and information demonstrating how to build it!
Excellent article...lots of detail and photos.
You did an awesome job on this article!
A lovely and detailed article on a practical winter-friendly coop for those with small flocks!
Great coop build!
Love the step by step instructions, lots of good hints and ideas. It was delightful to see your
youngest daughter grow into her love for the chickens. All four of your daughters are beautiful
and I’m sure you are very proud of the young women they are becoming.

I just LOVE this coop idea! You wrote a super article with lots of great pictures. If I could give you 6 stars I would. Did you ever come up with a estimate of the cost to build material wise? I'm so happy seeing the chicken hugs, reminds me of our grandson. Thank you again for the great article.
It looks like just the one we wanted.
Very thorough and easy to follow.
This article leaves nothing out. The details of how they did things from attaching the ramp to making the water heater. The pictures are great quality and give the feeling that you have just toured their coop in person. Magazine worthy article!
