If you are looking to create a coop to raise a few backyard chickens, this DIY small flock chicken coop is the perfect answer. (See our original article on our coop : https://oldworldgardenfarms.com/2019/03/07/small-flock-chicken-coop/ ) This quaint, durable and elegant coop cane be built easily with a simple 2 x 4 frame - and finished in anything from shiplap, to metal, siding, or even wood shingles. The finished coop measures 5′ long by 3′ wide, and is 50″ tall in the rear, with a sloping roof to 36" at the front. The design keeps chickens dry and safe, with plenty of doors for access and outside runs. The main space includes a full 48″ roosting bar, full-height screened-in window, and a large 28″ x 25″ door in front for easy access to clean. The roosting boxes can be accessed with a simple pull up door on the right side of the coop to collect eggs from the outside. Depending on the breeds raised, it has enough room for flocks up to 6 - 10 chickens. The entire framework of the small flock chicken coop is built from just fifteen (15) 2 x 4 x 8’s, with the 2 x 4’s on end instead of using flat traditional framing. It saves both on space and material. With an access door on the side, it is perfect to attach to a run. Or, with its incredibly sturdy frame, put it on wheels and have your very own mobile chicken tractor coop! Perhaps best of all, beyond it’s extremely strong, durable and attractive look, it's also quite easy and economical to build! The simple 2 x 4 frame can be built quite inexpensively with basic 2 x 4's. And the coop can be finished with inexpensive wood siding as show, or even vinyl or metal siding as well. The plans include a complete framing, metal roof and wood siding material list, tool list, and a cut list. Plans also include the instructions for finishing with a metal roof and wood siding - but can easily be adjusted to use with other coverings if desired.

class="WSProdTitle"> Wing & A Prayer Create housing for several birds at once using the Wing and A Prayer Gardenia House. This hexagonal dwelling has three individual apartments, creating room for a few birds at one time. Each apartment has its own 1.5" diameter entrance hole, with a metal predator guard which matches the roof to prevent the holes from being enlarged. A small ledge around the base of the house offers perching for fledglings, and recessed lines on the side panels add an architectural feel. Offset sides prevent territory disputes between birds, giving each avian family their own entrance and ledge. The verdigris color on the metal roof lends a classic look to the piece, and a large white finial tops the unit. The home is crafted from solid PVC trimboard, which will not mildew, mold, or delaminate, for a stable home for up to 25 years. The roof may be removed for nest checks and cleaning, and the interior walls lift out easily. Use the preinstalled mounting collar to attach this home to a 4" x 4" post (not included) for height and stability. Place the Gardenia House in your yard for a dramatic and functional roost for years to come. Made in the USA. Openings: 1.5" dia. Dimensions: 15.75"L x 14.625"W x 22.5"H overall Mounting: post mount Construction: plastic, metal Shipping Weight: 20 lbs
