PawHut 77" Wooden Chicken Coop with Nesting Box, Cute Outdoor Hen House with Removable Tray, Ramp Run, for Garden Backyard, Gray

I love this coop. Small, no more than three chickens. I read comments that say it does not protect well, but no chicken coop does on its own. You have to get wire mesh and a staple gun and wrap the mesh in and around the inside of the coop and use sod staples to attach it to the ground (the mesh)… the grass will grow through it and it will deter predators who try to dig. Look up “chicken wire skirt.” They’ve been in there for two weeks and no problem

Toy sized coop was okay to start. The wood has split on the roof after a couple months. Roosts were very close to the ground. I added hardware cloth to make it safer. Replaced the egg box latch with a locking swivel. Added to the run area. Moved chickens to a larger coop now that they have grown. Will use again for babies in the future.

•Instructions are pictures and numbers only. I highly recommend using a drill. You will need it. I completely skipped the first part, which was to put the roof together. Honestly, the roof was the hardest part. You’ve got to guess where to drill the pieces together. It doesn’t label where the screws go or have preset holes on the roof. I was worried that a would end up stripping it. It was easier for me to build the base of the coop then build the roof. You’re required to use bolts and nuts to connect the nesting box to the coop. 2 of the 4 holes that are predrilled had tiny staples or nails poking through them. Another small annoyance to fix. I could probably go on.•Item is flimsy. Totally expected it to be cheap made, which it is. I was too lazy to build something. I purchased this for a quick setup. This would be excellent for a Mother hen and her chicks or for small Seramas (smallest of chickens).•Not truly predator proof. I intentionally planned to put this in our chicken run. I honestly don’t think someone living in town could get away with this in their yard for long before their chickens get snatched or killed. For the effort to make it predator proof and the small annoyance to put this together, it would be better to just DIY your own little coop. Not to mention, any DIY project would easily last longer than this coop. If your not the most savvy, there are plenty of plans (free or for a small fee) for beginners on the internet.•I highly doubt the long term use of this coop. Wood pallets are sturdier. I would not be surprised if this went to the dump next year.•I would not put more than one regular sized chicken in this, unless you let the chickens roam free during the day and lock them up at night. In that case, two regular chickens could get away with it, but I would absolutely not recommend this at all.•When it’s all set and done, I recommend getting creative and building your own coop. I will never again purchase any coop online. Looking at all of the coops, they are too expensive with zero quality. It’s easy to find scraps and/or purchase the needed building materials. If you feel you lack basic simple beginner skills, it would be cheaper to pay a handyman to build you something of any size for what you desire.

Very good price plus free delivery. Packaged nicely, no damages. Quality is better than a lot of other coops. Assembly is smooth until you get to the roof. The instructions get vague at that point. I looked like a chimp trying to put a square peg in a round hole. Overall I was pleased.

I purchased this coop without high expectations given the overall low rating. Other reviewers have mentioned that the assembly instructions are poor. I agree, however I was able to assemble it myself in an hour or so. I did not have any problems with wood cracking, though I screwed everything in by hand. The coop is cute, but it is on the small side. It will be perfect for my one (soon to be two) mallard duck. I am keeping the coop inside a building that is predator-proof at night and he forages during the day. I would not leave my duck outside overnight in this coop. The wire in the run is stapled on; a raccoon would get through it like butter. The latches are too easy for predators to open as well. If the wire was attached more securely to the run and new latches put on, it *may* be ok. It’s pretty lightweight, so it would need wire underneath or buried to keep predators from getting under. We have a family of raccoons that love our yard. We have also spotted skunks, coyotes, hawks and a bobcat in the woods behind our house, so we need extra protection. It works well for our indoor placement, it’s cute and I’m glad I purchased it. My duck loves it!Edit: I added a few photos with my mallard to give you some perspective on the size of the coop.

Good started chicken coop. It is small for more than 1 full grown chicken. We are currently using it for 3 chicks, but we can see that the interior measurements will be too small for them eventually. The measurements given are exterior measurements and looking back I realize it would have been better to get the interior measurements of the coop. It is also flimsy. You have to be careful screwing in the screws as the wood splits easily. We had to staple gun a few pieces of wood after they split. It is not a bad chicken coop at all. It looks great and it does function well. It is light enough to be picked up and moved around if needed, but I would suggest not screwing the roof on if you plan to move it around your yard. I would recommend someone purchasing this chicken coop if you’re planning on only one full sized chicken or 2 of the smaller breeds. We let our chickens walk around our backyard when we are home and mostly use this coop for when we leave and at night. I hope this helps someone.

I repainted and added reinforcement with screws so it'd last in harsh weather. Runway way too small for 1 duck or 2-3 chickens.latches cheap and bent easy making pain latching doors.

I love the way it looks after being put together. It was a fiasco putting the roof together.... instructions stunk and didn't explain good enough but we got it done. The rest was quite simple ....my 15 yo grandson and I winged it and it came out perfectly. Very sturdy and is adorable. Instructions need a little twerking so customers don't have any issues
