Lazy coop

[A & H]

I have an older coop that I've had for about four years now, and I'm getting new chickens. I want to build an extension instead of making a new coop or buying a new coop, but I want it to be simple because I don't have a lot of time for it. Do you have any ideas or suggestions?

Pictures and diagrams of current layout will help... a lot.

How many birds do you have now....and how many do you plan on adding??

IMHO, it would be easier to build a new coop than to add onto that one.

I lost my last two to a hawk, but i had four and I'm planning to have anywhere from four to six, but probably just four.
Yeah, I know it's probably not realistic. Do you or anyone else know of a place I could maybe buy around the same size coop if I ever decide to replace it? And what type, like is there a name or something? I got this one from zamzows four years ago and it's lasted but it's BAD QUALITY

but it's BAD QUALITY

Another good reason not to try to modify it.
Most prefabs are not good quality.

What's a prefab? Prefabricated, right?
