Easy-to-care-for, productive, inexpensive, and full of personality,
chickens are popping up in backyards throughout the country--in the
suburbs, rural towns, and even on city plots. All it takes to keep
a small flock is a bit of land and a properly designed coop.
Just like houses, chicken coops come in all sizes and styles to
meet the needs of any chicken family. Author Judy Pangman has
combed the country identifying the top chicken coop designs, from
utilitarian to high-style. The result is this ultimate collection
of 45 building plans that are sure to meet the needs of any chicken
owner.
The featured designs include basic easy-to assemble hoop houses,
A-frames, and multi-storied wooden structures, as well as larger
models for small commercial farms. There are also a variety of
moveable coops that can be rotated around the yard, and low-budget
coops constructed from found and repurposed materials.
Pangman shares inspirational and instructive stories about the
participating coop designers/ builders. Enthusiastic communities of
chicken-keepers have organized chicken tours in cities such as
Seattle, highlighting the fun and fantastic imagination of some
coop architect/builders. There are designs echoing the house styles
of the neighborhood, as well as the most contemporary trends in
architecture. Building a chicken coop offers a great outlet for any
would-be architect who wants to stick to the miniature, scaled-down
building
A 16-page color section shows detailed photos of many of the
featured coop plans, as well as some amazing kits and one-of-a-kind
coops built from recyclables.
With its comprehensive building plans and chicken-laden stories,
"Chicken Coops" is sure to inspire a sunny-side-up, no-yolks-barred
attitude in all chicken owners who dream of building a bigger,
better coop to house their flock.
