New member intro: Hi I'm Chickiestohens. Currently I have 4 9mo old Buffy Oripngton "Ladies" and 6 chicks..2 astr'lorps, & 3 other of different breed

Stablemate--not equine any more( he chewed even then), although he thinks the 10 cats ( " a little short but otherwise ok") 4 chickens ( "really weird hair mom, but otherwise ok"), dogs( " noisy and nosey and just weird horses yuck..they eat my horse hockey!! but ok- they at least have hair and like to romp & roll next to me"), and assorted people who like to lay in the sun next to him ('and have very yummy treats!--when I'm good")
Pastures-- multiple ranging from 1/3 to 1 acre used in rotation.
Coop--stands about 7 ft tall by 8 ft long x 4 ft wide so not easily moved.
Chewing would perhaps be more descriptive although his vet used either term at times-even in the same sentence.

Would a rounded corner , Craftsman resin shed ( with appropriate modifications) work--emphasizing the rounded edges vs the 90 degree edges on wooden coops be a decent concept?

Thanks 🐎
I would build the coop with steel Sch 10 - 4" pipe corners. You could also get 6"x 6" x 3/16" thick steel angle iron to put on the corners. I am a pipe welder, it was my profession so we build a lot out of steel around here.

It would work as long as Caleb can't get to it.
Have you considered a goat pasture buddy?
