Newb starting a backyard chicken coop

[Penpal]

If you know a carpenter ask if he/she can build you a coop. You can also use a small hoop coop. I have a small one. It's not big enough for ten chickens but it has worked well for chicks, is portable, and is useful for added shade in the summer.

Hello, I am planning to start a backyard chicken coop. Chicks are ordered and I will brood in a mesh pen that I am ordering from amazon. I am looking into this chicken coop . https://aivituvin.com/collections/c...n-house-with-run-air46?variant=44743597752601

Eventually I plan on keeping 10 chickens . Has anyone here ordered this coop before? Is it any good?

I’ve been keeping chickens for a while now, and one of the biggest lessons I learned is that the right coop makes all the difference. Good ventilation, easy cleaning access, and enough space per bird really help keep the flock healthy and stress-free.


If anyone’s still deciding what kind of coop to go for, this site has some practical options and guides for UK chicken owners: https://www.chickencoopsandhouses.co.uk/


I ended up getting ideas from there before setting up my current coop, and it’s been working really well for my hens.
