Last year I contacted Carolina Coops to see if they would sell me plans for their coop. Understandably, they declined. So I decided to build my version of their coop. I still spent way too much money on the coop, but it should outlive me with proper maintenance.

The entire structure is 12’ wide by 36’ long (coop is 12’x6’ and the run is 12’x30’). It has 3 12’ roost bars and two 5’ undivided egg hutches. I walled off the area

underneath the coop to use for new additions and birds that need isolation.

It was a fun project that still needs a few trim details and a little more paint.

Twenty five Barred Rocks and Eater Eggers (and one EE rooster) enjoy free ranging in the little stand of trees around the coop.

That looks incredible! It's beautifully and sturdily made -- great job!
