If you have a beautiful coop that looks like a little house, post!

Sooo jealous, you name the predator, we pretty much seem to have it! Arggg. It has taken many years, even a point where we gave up keeping chickens.... It was just too heartbreaking!

I just bought it on Craigslist. These are the ad photos. He designed and built it himself. I love it because it's 9'long, 7'tall, and only 2'deep. No more bending over to clean the bedding or collecting eggs. I'm in the process of painting out the inside and re-staining it. It's on wheels, but as heavy as an SUV. Not going to be a tractor! My run should connect to it nicely. I can't wait to get it in use and at that time I'll have my own photos..It looks nice and new inside now. I believe it will hold 7-8 birds just fine. He had the roost too high, it can't be seen in the photo. I'm lowering it, but it runs the length of the coop!

Cool! Where did you get that? Can we see some more photos? That's really interesting looking! How many chickens will it hold?

So many of these gorgeous coops should be set up as partial coop/partial B&B! What fun to vacation in such beautiful places AND have the bonus of chicken watching as entertainment!! Not to mention how fresh the eggs for breakfast would be!!

Not sure if this has been posted on this yet, but the most amazing coop I've ever seen was decorated by mosaic artist Kathy LaFleur -here's a link to a page where you can see her coop

The mosaics are gorgeous, but I LOVE the roof, that is sooo cool, our turkey would be up there munching all day!

Hi. Not sure how to upload my pic but I just posted a question on this forum under relocating my coop by maggiegigs and my house coop picture is right there. It is the most adorable coop for 4-8 hens. None of my neighbors complained. How could they? I even have potted plants in the run. Good luck. Hope you find what you are looking for.

I am a mere two days away from the three day weekend of coop building. My wife and I are a mere week away from receiving our first four chickens. I wanted some last minute inspiration and boy am I inspired. These "houses" are amazing. Hopefully I will be able to post mine here too. Gotta get it built first.
