Hello, and welcome! Are you planning to start a flock or have you bought your chick's already? If you have already bought some, what breed are they and how many?

Size of the bird's and how many you decide to get will determine how big of a coop that you will need.

WELCOME Great question...Also don't do what I did. I put a lot of $ into prefabs. Hire a contractor or handyman to do it for you.
