How big a chicken coop for 20 chickens

Portable 64 sq. ft. chicken coop

for more than 20 chickens

These big beautiful chicken coops are 8 x 8,

 and 4 feet tall. Good for 21 large breed chickens,

 or at least 26 small  (bantam) chickens. 

2 full-size side doors for 20+  chickens to get in and out

Two of the double nest 

boxes  for your laying hens

They feel safe and comfortable with this coop all year long.

(Please check out how we winterize our coop..)

          Predators, like foxes and raccoons tend to dig right at the spot

              where the coop meets the ground. You can lay galvanized wire mesh 

on the ground, along the sides of the coop to keep them out. 

  However, in our own experience, even though we don't use this method on our farm, no predator has been able to get into any of our 

many chicken coops - not even a snake. We do have lots of wild critters though, and we recently lost  several prized hens when we forgot to close one of the coops for the night. 

  Most digging predators cannot dig enough in one night 

to get under the coop. Just put coops on level ground, and keep an eye out for developing holes. Move the coop if you see a hole beside it.

   If you live in fox, or marten country (fast diggers) then you should use precautions like the wire mesh idea, above.

So do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded. You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised.                                                                                                                               Hebrews 10:35

                This IS a wonderful backyard chicken coop.  

               It’s perfect for free range chickens (or ducks). 

               This coop is shipable - but NOT a 

               "manufactured kit"  with bags of complicated 

               parts, where you are expected to follow a long set

              of instructions to assemble the thing 

               from scratch.

              This is a "ready-made coop" that was fully 

               assembled here in our back yard; we make them 

               one at a time, especially for your order.     

    We just removed a few screws for shipping

    - It's easy to follow our markings to put

      it together again.

* We don't use external nest boxes  extending from the sides-

** We found those boxes get to  

over 120 degrees in summer! 

These are the brooders we used since 2010. 

THOUSANDS of the chicks and ducklings we own in these years all come from these brooders
