We are now using 16 Gauge black vinyl coated 1/2 square hardware cloth. Most builders only use 19 gauge but 16 gauge is far better for predators and you'll be able to see your chickens better with black verses the silver galvanized . When 16 gauge is not available we will use 19 gauge.
Our coops will last over 15 years as we have customers that have had our coops for 14 years and they're still doing well.

"Don't wait until you have your hens to order a coop as our lead times are rarely less than 4 weeks."
The coop design and likeness are protected under
Our coop design is unique, combining coop and run in one structure. This design allows customers to confine their hens, if necessary, provided the coop size is adequate. Some locations do not allow residents to "free range" their hens.
The recommended square footage of coop space per hen is 4 square feet. The recommended square footage of run space per hen is 10 square feet. If your hens will be allowed to free range, then your recommended coop square footage would be 4 times the number of hens. If your hens will be confined, then your recommended coop square footage would be 10 times the number of hens.
Example 1:
10 free ranging hens x 4 square feet = 40 square feet = 5x8 coop size recommended
Example 2:
10 confined hens x 10 square feet = 100 square feet = 6x18 coop size recommended
