Thanks! I looked on Marketplace and couldn't find anything. We are about the furthest away from the coast as you can get in SC though so there's that.You may find that used shipping crates are cheap and easy to find where you are, especially since you're in a coast state. Add legs, put a hinge and latch on one side for access, a ramp and pop-door, some vents, paint the outside and clad the roof. The crates that motorcycles come in seem like a really great size.
My chickens are weirdly fond of those plastic nest-boxes that just hang on a wall. With those and the crate-style building (with the frame on the outside) it'd be very easy to sanitize or de-mite, compared to other wooden coops.
