You have to see this: $3k Anthropologie coop

Before I spent that kind of money on that, I would buy on of these.

AT 3k that will sell in a market like California.

It would never sell if priced at what it is worth.

It does not even have hardware cloth for added protection (looks like a light gauge chicken wire).

As a Californian, I sir am offended

or embarrassed as actually this might be true for first time chicken owners living in an upscale neighborhood. However I would hope that the first time a raccoon eats all their chickens through the chicken wire would make them completely rethink this coop. Why do all these "designers" not design first for chickens??? I see a lot of so called "modern" designs and none of them even put the roost higher than the nest boxes... sheesh.

Anthropologie sells three dollar items for $30, so not all that much surprise they're selling a $200 coop for three grand.

Love the way they're so proud of the "reclaimed wood." Frankly, I wouldn't care if the wood was reclaimed from Noah's Ark and the Cross...that coop still wouldn't be worth $3,000. Who was it that says "you can't fix stupid?"

OMG lol....

Talk about "yeah right!" Wow, yeah I saw an ad for one that Williams Sonoma put out I think last spring that was pretty rediculous too....but I don't think they even charged that much! And it was an actual coop, not a tractor....

Here's the Williams-Sonoma link http://www.williams-sonoma.com/shop/agrarian-garden/agrarian-garden-chicken-coops/ Apparently they have done quite a few! They even have one made of cedar...which is a no-no!
