Thank you for the update. I’m considering an Omlet Eglu Cube. So far the reviews I’ve read are positive and I understand nothing is perfect. I think the company has made a big improvements since 2015 to 2020.
I have a 2 almost 3 year old Frizzle hen, a 4 month old Silkie (almost 90% sure it’s a cockerel) and I just adopted a standard size 11 week old Easter Egger pullet.
IF the Silkie turns out to be a he, I will eventually have to rehome him.
After rehoming the cockerel, I will be left with the...
I’d be willing to try a shed. Are there any sheds you’ve seen that are inexpensive that would suffice for a chicken coop to hold about 5-6 bantams? TIA.
I have 6 bantam chicks and in search of a new coop. The number will drop because I’m sure I have roosters in the group and I cannot have roosters in my area.
I came across this website and saw their A-frame coop. It looks like it’s well built and I’m considering it.

I don't know if you can tell by these photos. Any guesses if the white one is a pullet or cockerel. Both are 5 month old frizzles. The black one is a pullet; she's already laid 3 eggs.

What kind of wood? Pressure treated? Where did you get the wood...

Thank you for posting and describing in detail what you did as you built your chicken coop.
It's been several years since you posted. Are you still happy with your coop? Are there any changes, adjustments you would do differently? Do you live in SoCal? I'd hire you to build mine :celebrate
I have three chickens. The older one is a 6 month old female. She is part bantam and I was told part silkie; she looks like a regular chicken with feathered feet.
The two younger ones are three month old siblings. I don't know if the are hens or roosters. Their mother is a frizzle and the...
