  1. Shed Coop 2.0

    Shed Coop 2.0

    In the summer of 2023 we tore down the old shed that we converted part of into our coop, and then we built a new shed/coop combo from the ground up. The old coop worked, but the shed was here when we bought the house and it was beginning to show wear. It needed new siding, trim and doors, which...

    Large Chicken Pen

    Just wanted to share some pictures of the Chicken Pen I built towards the end of 2020. I built this over the course of 3 weekends. Not the fanciest thing in the world by no means but I am happy with it and have no doubt that it should get the job done. Also, I live in Central Alabama and we very...

    Hello BYC community! First time chicken and duck owner and first time coop builder. I did a lot of research on Pinterest and Google before building my coop (apparently not enough, I don't know why I didn't find BYC sooner.) I think I have some good design functionality in my coop, but I'm...

    The Chicken Shed of my dreams :)

    I recently moved to NC and we almost immediately started a plan for a chicken coop! We bought a used 10 by 12 shed, wood and hardwire fencing. The inside is painted white and the floor was supposed to be a light grey but it ended up looking like a blue grey instead but it’s waterproof so...

    Build a coop from pallets

    I loved our coop from the local farm store.. but it just wasn't big enough. I decided I needed to make my own. It's 25 feet long and 8 ft wide. I used pallets. I set a $250 budget. I spent most of it in roofing and door.

    High Country Hen House

    There was a lot of discussion about what to do with our new hen house. My dad wanted a look that was based off the huts used by stockmen in the Victorian high country. He is a carpenter by trade and wanted to use the hen house as a chance to experiment with techniques he wants to use building...

    Little Red Coop (On a Farm Down in Indiana) ...Okay, so "little" might be a bit outdated now... With a 26x8 footprint, plus 6x8 foot wing on the side, this coop is FAR from little anymore! For years, my birds lived in a tiny, 4x8x4 foot tall coop that was as miserable for us to work with as...

    Northbound Hen House

    Our chickens had been down in the horse barn in a crude side building that was very inadequate for their laying. So, to increase producing and to also bring them closer to the house, we designed and built a new separate house for our ladies. Our 8 year old son is in charge of the chickens and...
