You can buy a chicken coop from a hundred different sites. Here's why thousands of keepers chose ours.
Every coop in our catalog uses hardware-cloth wire mesh (not flimsy chicken wire), reinforced framing, supported nesting boxes, and weatherproofed roofing. The details that look invisible in product photos are what decide whether your coop is still standing in 5 years.
Our coops ship from our US warehouse, not direct from overseas. Most orders arrive in 3-10 business days, and shipping is free on most coops.
Standard on every coop. If a frame piece fails or hardware lets you down within the first 12 months, we cover replacement parts. File a claim with a photo and a serial number — no back-and-forth.
Pre-purchase sizing questions, mid-assembly "which screw goes where", post-purchase warranty claims — answered by real people who keep chickens themselves. Reach us here.
When we say a coop fits 8-10 hens, that's standard breeds with normal stocking density. Not the "fits 10 hens if they're bantams and you free-range them all day" listing trick. Our capacity ranges are conservative and based on the 4 sq ft indoor + 10 sq ft run rule.
