Any experience with: Coops & Feathers Universal Pen (SKU 221-75)

[Ginmary]

I can't find any info on it. Their website just list "add to cart" but there is no description. I tried googling but can't find any one other than Innovation Pets that lists it. I've never seen a product that has no info or specifications. And it's not cheap.

EDT: It appears to be the same product. If that wasn't clear.

If you go to their home page and scroll all the way down to the bottom, there is a phone number under "Contact Us". You can call for specifics.

This was the 1st one I saw but it is discontinued and not available anywhere I could find. Of course it is also cheaper! I guess I’m going to have to contact the company

I think it's the exact same product. It has the same dimension specifications and the same cover image. I was only recommending you look at it for the reviews.

That is 13x7.6 feet.
You could build that yourself for a fraction of the cost out of materials that would last for years.

How many chickens are you really hoping to keep in there? The photos are so deceptive because they intentionally scale coops and runs etc to look massive compared to the chickens.

I wouldn’t suggest more than 8-10 average size chickens. A few more if you raise Bantams or silkies.

x2.

Even with the photos, it looks pretty small to me.

I find it infuriating
that they always give the size in inches rather than feet.

'Least they ain't doin' it in centimetres. Yet.

If you read the reviews, anyone that has expertise in chickens did not rate it well. Most of the 5 star reviews were from people about to get chickens, or people that had not even put it together yet.
You can build a coop better than this for about $200 or less. If you buy this pre-fabricated coop, plan on spending a couple hundred to reinforce/fix and secure it from the factory from all I've read about it.
