Producer's Pride Hill Country Chicken Coop, 6 Chicken Capacity, Grey/Black

Perfect for our new baby ducks. Well built.

It went together easily and is great for their 6 chickens :)

This coop is very nice . But there is an issue with it. You can’t close the little door to keep the chicks in. I removed the tray to clean it, I found damage to the metal bar that stabilizes the coop to make it Saturday. As well as where a forklift has hit the frame and pushed it out and the main large door is bowed as well I have to lift to shut it. We went to the store and spoke with a’ new asst manager Mitchell told us they could not help us. We asked for a replacement and Cory the associate told us that the coop was damaged by a previous associate dropping it and lifted it wrong with the forklift. We asked if we could replace the coop with one of the same price. The asst manager told us it’s in a box needs to be put together . We asked if they would put it together for us Mitchell was not very helpful at all. We have never had this kind of service from Tractor supply and we are long term customers.

For an out of the box coop I think it's pretty nice. Metal sides. Decent sized run that uses hardware cloth. Decent sized interior with space to put a bit of water and feed in the winter. Easy to put together, but I wish it was designed so someone could decide which side the egg box goes on. Feels like that would be an easy enough change to make. The egg boxes are decent sized, but can't be blocked off to keep chickens out. Plenty of ventilation. There's a big window to the back which has a hardware cloth cover and a smaller sliding door above the chicken door which also has a hardware cloth cover. To me the weakest part is the coop door. I have two, and sometimes it drags and makes me worry how long it'll last. Also it's a weird decision that the door is just painted wood when so much of the exterior is covered in metal or plastic. Materials that are a little more water resistant. Another issue is that the instructions don't tell you when you need to drill. Which isn't a problem for the most part because most of the hardware is already together, and a lot of points show where you're intended to drill. The exception for this is the roof and the chicken door handle holder. For the price it's probably one of the better coops on market, and would be easy to modify to fix the issues it does have. I've got one for chickens, and I'm using another one for ducks.
