Help me decide on a chicken coop

[Weeg]

Could I take the dividers out of one of the sides and make that part of the coop??

I would take out all 3 nesting boxes on one side. More on the other side if possible.

I didn't see a divider.

The dividers that make the space into nesting boxes.

Remember with a wooden construction coop you can always modify the design and expand it.

Oh I see it now

It is a good price. If I bought it I would remove one side of the nesting boxes and add a extension to make it even bigger. It wouldn't take a lot of wood to do it.

Same, thats a good idea.
Maybe @cluckmecoop7 knows someone who could help in exchange for eggs?
Its a nice build for a great price, but could use a bit of improvement.

I think 8 chickens would be fine, according to @WIchickMama's math.

Not during a Maine winter when they would be basically confined to the coop by weather.

Actually, our winters aren't as bad as people think.

Thank you everybody for your input! I'm going to go ahead and buy it. Yes, it will need a few modifications, but that should be pretty simple. I'll keep you updated!
