I am about to start building a new coop for 5-8 chickens in the driveway, the build will be on tarmac/concrete. I want to build an integrated run and coop, which will be behind a fence, I also have rabbits and quail in self contained raised cages, which will also be behind the fence. I am in Europe so the main predators are foxes and pine martens, along with dogs & cats etc, nothing with ‘hands’.
My question is are there any coop designs which are better for solid bases? Is there anything extra I need to include?
I haven’t built a chicken coop before, but I have a tonne of decent wood from a shed we just took down to use up. (The shed couldn’t be used for chickens it was in the way of the next build project)
I have looked at a million coop designs but am just not sure if there is anything particularly relevant to hard bases.
