are there any flaws with this coop?

We need more than just the stock outside photo to assess a coop. Dimensions for one, inside photos would help too. Everything you're posting is very cute and eye appealing, but function needs to come first.

thanks very much .enough about 10 chickens. how about this one ?

This has the ramp ending at the fence. There is no clearance for them to get off the ramp. They will jump off the side of the ramp if they have no other choice but that increases the risk of injury.

The ramp is too steep even if it had clearance - 45 degrees is the max.

These are just two of the things that show how little the person who designed this coop considered how it would function in real life.

You might consider a Woods' coop - designed by Prince T Woods.

These are a little bigger than 10 hens need if things go well. That makes it much easier to deal with things not going well. Such as keeping the fence around the run breaking down (fox digging under it or tree falling on it or a high risk of bird flu, for examples), or bad weather or new birds getting to know each other. It also makes keeping it clean enough much easier.

The coops look like a Bing image creator design.

I have been studying the pictures and compared it with a few Bing creator images. Imho the coops are not real.

Please post the link to the retailer of the coops if my assumption is not true.

The only thing wrong with that coop is that it is not in my backyard. Seriously, make sure the coop is not overcrowded, has plenty of ventilation and is easily accessible for cleaning and egg collecting.

What a newbie, lol Wellcome to the forum.
So you're looking for a coop? Read the posts here for a few hours. Do your homework. What are your needs, wants, weather conditions, the kind of up keep you are willing/ going to have to do... so many factors that flaws are not so mach as pro's and con's .
Chick wire, bubble gum and wooden pallets can be more serviceable than a high dollar perfab so read up.

Not everything is as it seems?
Of course you're going to try to promo these when you sell them, right?
