Chicken Coops
A good chicken coop is the cornerstone of successful poultry keeping.
It's tempting to buy to a cheap hen house off the internet, thinking that all coops are alike but once you get it home and attempt to build it, you discover why it was so cheap in the first place.
If you do manage to get the coop built you'll probably find it falls to bits after one winter and you'll have to start again.
Our chicken coops are made using only quality materials including pressure treated softwood and galvanised steel for low maintenance.
All of our chicken coop designs take into consideration such things as:
- Proper ventilation because your hens don't like wilting in summer
- Comfortable perches because your chickens need to practise their natural behaviour
- Correctly sized nest boxes because hens like just the right amount of room to lay their eggs
- Good access both for you to collect eggs or clean out and for your chickens to quickly take cover from perceived threats from predators
- The right weight - not too heavy to move, but heavy enough not to blow away in a gale or be lifted by a fox
- Looking good because no-one wants an eyesore in their garden or field!
Most of our chicken coops are sectional and can be delivered flat packed if required but we also offer a build service, where you can be sure your coop is properly constructed and sited to give your hens the best possible life.
P.S.
As well as traditional wooden chicken coops, we also supply environmentally friendly chicken arks made from recycled materials.
