What does your coop look like?

[Dangerndafield]

I'e been scratching my head for a few weeks trying to figure out a good way of making a coop my chickens are currently free ranging and I usto have 17 now I'm down to 6. So I'm needing a coop asap before my flock dies out or what I'm thinking someone is stealing them (long story) but I really would like too see your coop or how you made yours we did a temp pin and we bought fince that was 5 feet and we bought 6 ft post but it ended up being 5 ft after we got them in the ground and my chickens just fly over it. Anyways need ideas!! Pictures would be great!

Have you tried looking on Craigslist for pre-made coops or a trampoline?

This is a really good article on hoop coops.

Lots of great coops in the articles section here.

A shed can be converted into a coop.

Here is mine with a hoop run on it.

A garden shed, modified, works very well.
Hoop coops are inexpensive and fast to build.
My first chickens free ranged too, and roosted in the pole barn. "It will be fine" according to the neighbor. NOT SO! After many losses, we fixed our garden shed into a coop, still let them free range during the day, and cut our losses 90%.
Look on craigslist too.
Lock your few survivors in somewhere every night, at least. Do you have a garage?
