How much did your coop cost?

it cost me about $500 but i got a lot of free materials

freecycle is great for free building material

 

Mine was close to $1200 but that is for an 8' x 12' with an attached 20'x17' covered 7' tall run, automatic door opener, automatic watering system and built to withstand a direct hit from a falling space station. And it's pretty.

 

i got mine for 100. found it from people who were not running a flock anymore. ck craigslist and newspapers and people that know other people.

 

So far, about $100 and I've gotten a lot of stuff for free, barter or very cheap.

I invested in a 6ft tall chainlink walk gate - for a pricy $55, because I couldn't find anything used and I was afraid that anything I built would cause me more frustration than a few meeeeesly dollars were worth.

 

I tried not to keep track but I think it's about $1200 right now for our playhouse coop and 6x10 run. And another $200-$300 to add a sloped roof before it snows. Grandsons are my excuse.

 

free. we just fixed up an old shed on the property - used up all kinds of junk we found lying around. It aint the Ritz but its warm - dry and rather large!

 

Mine cost just under 900 dollars for the coop and run.

 

My coop was $343 , but I had the trailer base. and the tin roofing was bought cheap from behind a friends pole barn, that he had left over. Otherwise it would have been another $150 to $ 250 more.
