Only for small chickens or chicks.
The overall coop is very nice, but its very small. We knew it was going to be used for 3 silkies, so a small coop was okay. That said, our rooster has to duck when in parts of the coop. I wouldn't want to add any more chickens to the coop. The water tank I got for the coop barely fits in the door and is really too big. Consider accessories (water and food bowls) for chicks. Build instructions leave a lot to be desired. I ended up building up most of the coop to realize that the pull out shelf wouldn't work because I reversed the sides. I just put in a couple of blocks of wood to support the shelf. Not the end of the world. If after building the center section, I had tried fitting the shelf, I could have caught it early enough to fix. Since the shelf is basically the last step, I couldn't make the change. only a few of the parts had a small letter sticker stuck to them. It helps, but you still have to orientate the parts. I secured the bottom of the coop from predictors by wrapping chicken wire across the bottom. A 2 foot wide section of chicken wire works well. Then bend over the sides and staple it. If you plan on moving the coop, I would suggest reinforcing the stress points and putting some handles to grab. Maybe even some wheels for rolling.

Perfect for my 2 lion head bunnies! I only wish there were hinges to lift each roof for easier access, but all in all, I’m really happy with this coop.

    I definitely expected this to be a bit bigger. The quality could be better for the price. Otherwise it was easy to assemble and only took maybe a half hour

    Returned
    It was deeply below acceptable for a chicken coup. I'll give Home Depot this, they let me return it with no problem and I received a full refund.

      Very poor quality and does not match specifications
      The product description said that the cage was 24 inches wide. I measured it and it was 17 inches wide. It was essentially too narrow to be used. The cage was very flimsy, made with cheap, thin wood. It was difficult to put together since there were no pre-drilled holes on the main parts of the cage, and the places where you were to screw in the pieces were very difficult to access. Don't buy this shoddy cage!

        Great Chicken coop. Could also work for pet bunnies, pet rats, or guinea pigs. It is really nice looking.

        Hard to put together and super cheap. Had it for a couple of weeks and had to get rid of it. It can only hold one chicken full time or maybe 2 if allowed free range during day in my opinion. Highly don’t recommend, just spend the extra $150 dollars you need more on a better, bigger coop.

        It is a lot smaller than I was expecting. Always do good research on the measurements is my recommendation. Only maybe two fully grown chickens fit comfortably in this coop.

        Its tiny, and the materials are weak. This is not for a Chicken. Not even for one chicken.

        Very small! Poor quality materials. Honestly not even big enough for a full size hen.
