We have lots of hard ground here in Arizona.  I just built a new coop and didn't even use footings.  I set it up on skids then nailed 2x6 treated lumber all around the bottom to the ground.  It's so hard nothing can dig in and the coop is big and heavy enough not to blow away - we're not in an earthquake area so.....  Plus if I ever need to move it I can probably hook some chains to the skids and drag it with my truck.
