There’s nothing quite like fresh eggs from your own hens, and this backyard chicken coop lets you make that happen. I created this modular design to be comfortable, cozy, easy to clean and suitable for regions that get both too cold and too hot during the year. This house holds 4 to 6 hens, with lots of space for roosts and nesting boxes. It’s ideal for a fenced grazing system where the hens are free to come and go as they please during the day, then get locked safely inside during the night.
