UPDATE: I actually decided to go with a custom prefabricated coop that was assembled onsite. The cost was about the same: $2200. I think this was a great outcome. You can read about it here. Or click to see a video tour.

We don’t have that community of people where I live.

I would love to see the coops.

I have 12. I have 7 more coming so 19 total eventually.

It is a slanted roof. 8 ft to 6 fr

That sounds interesting. Please post pics!!!

I love the inside

I paid an architect to design it. I’m not sure how much input I’ll have during construction since the price was based on the design. Please, there are no roosts, poop board etc... just the coop.

That’s an awesome deal!

Thank you! You are correct, these are great options. This may change my direction. I had reached out to the Lodge Chicken Coop builder earlier this month but had forgotten all about it. I’m so glad you brought this to my memory. Even though the coop is smaller, it has a covered run. Great option.

Y You are reading my mind! For the run, I was definitely thinking abut the t-posts and welded wire. I already have a 10x10 dog fencing that is working well, but would like for it to be a little larger. Right now, I have chicken wire on top. You gave me many other good ideas! I'm sure I will...

Yes. Labor is $1000 and materials are about $1000 also.

Yes... as long as chicken math doesn't kick in!

This image says it all! It really puts things into perspective.

Based on this, I guess my cost is reasonable. I need to go ahead and accept the offer before prices go up even further!

I paid an architect $55. He provided dimensions and a materials list also.

Go on... tell us! Did it at least include a run?

I have 12 right now that should start laying soon. A few more are in the cards.

I have 12 right now that are about ready to start laying. I will likely get a few more chicks within the next few weeks.

Here is the design. I paid an architect to lay it out. I guess that means I'm already a little 'extra'!
