We love the shingled roof, it not only keeps out bad weather, but it looks lovely too! This smaller coop uses a very simple construction process that would be perfect for a beginner to take on. It is both efficient and roomy for a limited space. Only three feet wide the additional run brings it to almost 22’ in length. Photo Credit: Heather 4. The South City Coop They get livestock feed as well as bedding delivered on pallets weekly and stack them up for the taking when they’re done! The best place we’ve found to get pallets for building projects is our local feed store. There are many places you can pick up old pallets for free, just try to make sure they haven’t been used to transport hazardous materials as that could harm your chickens. What a great way to recycle and cover your feathered flock at the same time. This coop’s frame is made from wood pallets and used windows. If you’re looking to save even more money building your chicken coop, this one is a clear winner. Photo Credit: Construct101 3. Heather’s Recycled Wood Coop This coop also features outdoor access to the nesting boxes, which means you don’t need to enter the enclosed area every day in search of eggs. If you’re looking for a fully functional chicken coop that can house a medium sized flock, this is it! We love the fully covered chicken run, that’s a wonderful feature for keeping out predators, and the roof on top will keep the bedding dry too, which means it will last longer between cleanouts. In our opinion, easy access is one of the most important features of a small chicken coop, because it can be really tough to clean and collect eggs otherwise.

The plans include an easy access clean out tray and nesting box. It’s perfect for just a few hens and you can grow their treats right in the planter box. This charming little coop has dual functionality, a chicken coop and a planter box.
