You don’t need to be a master carpenter to build a chicken coop, but you will need to know some basics. If you are comfortable cutting wood, squaring up corners and working with different tools, then you might be a great fit to build your own coop. You will need your own tools, and plenty of room to work in. It’s best if you can build your coop in it’s final living place.

Our sister brand Rita Marie’s Chicken Coop Plans is the place to go to download chicken coop plans and chicken e-books to make your DIY life easier.

Of course, if you really aren’t up to the task of a DIY coop, you can always shop our pre-built chicken coops for sale!
