Chicken Coop

PROJECT PLAN

spacing is designed to prevent even small-

breed chickens from sliding. There is a 

slide-out tray for chicken droppings for 

easy cleanup. Additional hooks can be 

mounted inside to hang food and water, 

and outside to store brooms and scoops. 

The roof is hinged for easy access to lay 

fresh hay and check on eggs, and its 

overlapped design protects chickens from 

rain.

Start your own local farm with this 

plan.

Building a Chicken Coop is an ambitious 

project, but one that is incredibly 

rewarding. This coop is a deluxe home 

for chickens with a footprint that's perfect 

for small and urban backyards.

Its architecture is modern and elemental 

and includes many features that keep 

chickens happy. The front opening 

offers ample pecking and walking room, 

and the enclosed area provides shelter 

for roosting and laying. The ramp step
