Preparing the Ground for a New Chicken House
Preparing for delivery may be a whole lot easier than you imagined. Your new coop only requires a flat, well drained surface to sit on. Grass is fine. Water should not drain towards it or pool around the bottom of the coop (that would be harmful to your chickens as well).
The pressure treated legs and runners will last for years and years on the ground without anything else under them. If you prefer for your coop to sit on a base - cinderblocks, gravel or concrete is fine. The primary concern is prolonged exposure to moisture so water must have an escape and it must not collect around the base of the coop. See, easy breezy!
Normally your chicken coop will arrive in about three to six weeks from your order date. However, we are currently 14 to 16 weeks out on handmade coops. It may be sooner if we happen to have a truck rolling your way, but no promises at the moment.
Your coop will be delivered curbside on a pallet, packed in a large crate. The crate must be pulled apart in order for you to access the large sections of the coop that are to be assembled.
We will communicate via email all delivery information as it becomes available.
Due to differences in monitors, the colors you see on your screen may seem different, primarily darker or lighter, in person.

More Important Than Most Think - Keeping Chickens Cool
We know what is important to you and to your chickens. Heating is the concern of most new chicken keepers so you might be surprised to learn that cooling is oOften a much bigger issue. A chicken can die from too much heat but death from cold is less likely. If a chicken had her wish, temperatures would never be more than 50 degrees.
Here is How Our Coop Helps Keep Your Chickens Cooler in Summer & Warmer in Winter- Insulated Metal Roof for Cooler Summers and Warmer Winters
- Ventilation Opening that Seals to Keep More Heat In or Out
- Two Slider Windows that Open in Order to Create a Cross Breeze with the Ventilation Opening.
- Covered Run for Shade with a Lowered Area Under Run that will Usually Provide the Most Shade
