New Age Pet ecoFLEX Fontana Chicken Barn

Easily assembled if you follow the clear and simple directions. It takes about an hour. I added eye bolts to the door and door frame to secure overnight with a carabiner. The coop is light weight yet weatherproof and very sturdy once assembled. We have 3 good size Easter Egger chickens happily occupying it. 4 chickens that size would be it’s comfortable limit. Good buy and fast shipping.

It’s sad that people write reviews and complain about chewy instead of the product itself. If this coop is put together correctly, it’s actually really good. You can’t expect much for this price, you won’t get a $1000 coop for less than $200. It’s a good size and my ducks are super happy, with slots in the side for ventilation. Predators have not gotten my ducks since they have lived in this coop. It’s super easy to clean. Moved this coop to our pond without any issues. Put it together correctly and enjoy your coop, like my ducks do.

I thought the biggest problem would be that pieces 13 and 14 were cut upside down and backwards, but I fixed that by switching the pieces and installing them both upside down and backwards. Unfortunately, once I got the entire coop together I could see that it was designed so that there was a triangular hole in each corner of the floor large enough to let in a rat or snake. This design defect makes it completely unsafe for the use it was sold for. The unit is impossible to disassemble without breaking it, and it’s too heavy for me to re-pack and bring to town for a return. This is a complete waste of money and headed for a dumpster. Zero ought to be a rating option.

Exactly as described. Not too hard at all to put together either. I purchased for my 3 new, 18 week old hens that will be coming. Will use to separate until acclimated to their new home with 3 that I currently have!

Nice little coop, going to be used for grow out coop for babies and teenage chicks and turkeys. Easy to put together. My husband and I put it together in under 2 hrs and no arguing at all.

My partner and I assembled this coop in about an hour. The instructions are easy to follow and more detailed than some Ikea furniture I've put together. As others have mentioned, do not force the pieces together — if they aren't clicking in, there's likely a misaligned point somewhere. We bought this coop because our growing chicks had been suffering through constant rain in a semi-open run. For that purpose, this coop has worked very well, but I wouldn't recommend it for more than 3 adult birds due to its small size, and not long term use without modifications (see cons). This coop would also be good as an isolation coop. Pros: Lightweight, easy to assemble, watertight for now, seems higher My partner and I assembled this coop in about an hour.

This coop would also be good as an isolation coop. Pros: Lightweight, easy to assemble, watertight for now, seems higher quality than other prefab coops in this price range. Incredibly fast shipping from Chewy. Cons: The latch on the door is not predator proof. There are four holes in the floor of the coop when fully assembled (I'm assuming for ventilation), but they are definitely big enough for a rodent to slip through. You could probably solve this issue by stapling hardware cloth over the holes, but I haven't tried doing this yet. We elevated the coop off the ground on a pallet to prevent these holes from letting water in. Ventilation is minimal. For hotter climates I would recommend drilling additional ventilation holes in the walls. The roosts are not very useful in my experience. Our chicks wouldn't step over them (they are very low to the ground) so we took them out to maximize floor space. Caveat: We've only had this coop assembled for about 3 weeks, so I can't speak to its longevity outdoors. … more

I bought this coop as I was in a pinch and needed one quickly. The engineered wood is fantastic because the pieces actually fit together, and it is well designed overall. The floor could use some reinforcing to protect from predators, but other than that it's a nice, safe little coop. A Rhode Island Red travelling companion laid eggs 2 out of 3 days and used the roost 2 out of 2 nights. Very happy with this product and Chewy.

We purchased this after searching a long time for a decent coop. Most of the lower priced wooden coops are horribly made. We saw this and the description of a wood/plastic polymer composite and thought it may be like "Trex" decking. Very sturdy and long lasting... especially considering the "List Price" on this item. We were wrong. It is very flimsy, and really just seems like plastic. The door/ramp is barely held in place. It would be nice if the roof opened as well, since it can be a bit difficult to clean through the small door. We purchased the pen as well and that is also poorly made. Not really impressed. I feel the description was quite misleading. I am not convinced this will last very We purchased this after searching a long time for a decent coop.

This is not worth $25 it’s really a piece of junk disguised as a coop- multiple pieces broke during assembly and it would have been impossible to clean. We returned this as it was not suitable for anything except a sick/ isolation coop maybe. Never would have survived New England winter and too hot in summer. Just not a good coop at all.

I got baby ducks for Mother’s Day and they were living in my bath tub-until they got too big and stinky. Needed a safe outside house to give me the security that they would not get eaten by predators. Now they live in the back yard with a baby pool and are quite happy. Fast delivery, easy assembly. Two fat Perkins fit nicely.
