3 Benefits of Building Your Own Coop

Most Ready-Made Coops Are a Complete Rip-Off!
Most "ready-made" coops are shipped or sold to you flat-packed. They are nothing more than a few pieces of cheap wood cut to the right dimensions, packaged with a couple of nails for you to put everything together.
You Get to Choose Material
If you build your own chicken coop you get to choose the FINEST material to use and you'll get the material for wholesale prices from your local hardware shop!
Build the Perfect Coop For YOUR Needs
When building your own coop you get to build a coop that suits YOUR exact needs. Want a coop large enough for 2 chickens? Need a full-sized chicken condo that can hold 25? No problem! You're in control.
