About this collection
Backyard Chicken Coop Ideas, explained.
A chicken coop can be the most charming building in the yard. These designs show coops with real architecture — matching siding and roof, a nesting box you can reach from outside, a covered run — placed beside the vegetable beds where the hens earn their keep.
