Steps for How to Build a Chicken Coop:
1. Stain the sheets of T1-11 and allow to dry.
2. Place two sheets of T1-11 on top of each other and ensure they are even on all sides. Use a track saw to cut the roofline of the plywood at a 45-degree angle on both sheets at once.
3. Remove one sheet and then, using a jigsaw, cut a small square opening for the sliding coop door into a plywood sheet. For all the doors, the cutouts will later be reattached as the door.
4. On the next sheet, cut an opening for the small entrance door, using the jigsaw.
5. Cut a third sheet of T1-11 to form the side walls. On one of them, cut a large opening for the egg door, using a jigsaw. The other side wall will remain uncut.
6. Cut two of the 4x4 posts to the desired length, then match the angle of the roof using a miter saw for both steps.
7. Use a driver to drive in 1 5/8-inch ceramic screws to attach the posts to the plywood sheeting.
8. Use a piece of 2x4 at the bottom and the top of the coop to give it additional support. Attach these using ceramic screws, and fasten them using a driver.
9. Construct the opposite gable end, repeating the same steps.
10. Connect the two gable ends using 2x4s, and attach one of the side walls.
11. To form the rafters, screw in a 2x4 ridge beam and 2x4 purlins (parallel roof framing), using a driver and 3-inch ceramic screws.
12. Finish the framing by attaching additional 2x4s to the base of the front and back gable walls, using 3-inch ceramic screws.
13. Then, attach two more perpendicular 2x4 joists to form the floor support for the coop with 3-inch ceramic screws
14. To form the floor, use the _-inch exterior plywood and cut out the corners to match the posts using a jigsaw.
15. Fasten the plywood floor by driving 1 5/8-inch screws into the floor joists.
16. Attach the cutout door pieces to the plywood exterior sheets of the structure using hardware of your choice. Do this by driving provided screws into the hardware.
17. Attach the chicken door by threading a rope through a pulley at the top of the door. Then attach the rope to an eyelet on the chicken door. The other end of the rope should be linked to a hook at the opposite end. A track for the door can be made using scrap wood.
18. Attach the final side wall using 1 5/8-inch ceramic screws.
19. Build a nesting box to your desired dimensions using plywood and 2x4s.
20. Cut cellular PVC trim boards to match the angles of the coop, using a miter saw.
21. Attach the PVC trim boards to the exterior of the coop using a hammer and stainless-steel trim nails.
22. Attach _-inch plywood roof sheathing to the roof structure using a driver and 1 5/8-inch ceramic screws.
23. Lay down a layer of felt paper, and staple in place.
24. Using a hammer and roofing nails, attach the asphalt shingles with a 5-inch reveal to the roof sheathing.
25. Attach 4x4 posts of the coop to a beveled base using a driver and ceramic screws.
26. Attach the beveled base to a 2x12 square using a driver and ceramic screws to keep the coop from sinking into the ground.
27. Create a pen area using pressure-treated 2x4s to desired design. Connect the pen structure using driver and ceramic screws. Include an access door for cleaning the pen.
28. Cover the pen with chicken wire by hammering in construction staples.
29. Dig a trench in the outline of the pen at least 3 inches deep, and place the structure in the trench. This is meant to keep predators from crawling in underneath.
30. Attach the pen structure to the coop structure by driving in screws.
31. Place a piece of 2x12 from the coop door to the pen to serve as a ramp for the chickens.

Why do chicken coops have 2 doors? Cause if they had 4 doors they'd be a chicken sedan.🤣😂
This made my morning lmao thank you
Looooool
I honestly don't get it despite my being fun at parties. Is there a hidden meaning to this joke? Or is 5 a 4 door called a chicken sedan joke?
@Alex Pelon coop sounds like coupe, a type of car with only 2 doors. Sedan are cars with 4 doors.
תתקשרי אלי
Just built this exact coop from the video. Very helpful and if you’re a little handy it’s easy. For anyone wondering it cost me roughly $275. I built just the coop part though I already had the cage part
What pitch was the roof
By the way, how many sheets of the plywood did you buy? 3 or 4?
coopodoit helped me a lot building my coop.
Ha,ha😁 chuckled when Tommy made that comment at the end when the roof was being slid into place. Nice job guys👍
I wish my late Grandfather would have seen this, wow, would he be impressed. He had chicken coops all during his childhood and some later in his life. He spoke of them often! Great job guys!
Great design. Love to see Kevin doing a great job helping out.
Tell me you never had chickens, without telling me you never had chickens. I seriously love This Old House. This is a quality built coop. Just not the best for chickens. If you are watching this video please take the following into consideration. Chicken wire is nothing to ground based predators. Coons and or possums will sinmply rip their way through it and kill your birds. Ventilation is key. Chickens run about 105 body temp. They lose water through breathing. If cooped up without ventilation the air becomes heavy with moisture which can cause them to get way to cold. Finally, and the chicken people will know, you only need one or two nesting boxes. Give them 10 and they will fight over one.
I know it's 8 years later, just a nice gentle warning to anyone considering this exact build. It's cool, just add heavy duty hardware cloth to the run, put in some vents and only do like 2 nesting boxes.
I've been a builder for many years and have seen quite a fair bit of sheds. The plans in ryan's package th-cam.com/users/postUgkxB7IXYxLzb_Ichhe45zM3Im5xfEiSp9vB have some of the nicest looking sheds i've seen in a while.
Too often these days, in project like this, the master worker starts right in without even giving a drawing or plan of the project. He's done it many times before, I'm sure. However, it helps so much to visualize the usage of pieces if we have an initial graphic idea of the whole thing.
I love watching experts work, though, this was educational.
I used a 10x10x6’ high dog kennel with a chicken wire roof worked perfect so simple also added a sheet of plywwod for rain protection just used pipes across top for support
A few thoughts for people who are thinking about recreating this. "Chicken wire" is not fox or raccoon proof. They can bite right through it. You need at least 2mm thick aviary mesh / welded mesh to be predator proof. Secondly chickens need a place to roost - they sleep standing on a roost which is essentially a bar. This house has no bed! Also this is far too many nesting boxes. Chickens like to share nesting boxes so two or 3 would be fine.
Lastly, that coop is too small for six chickens. Especially with the additional nesting boxes.
onelegout pls mention about No Vents! Those poor chickens will Roast in there! 🤦♂️
Yup I learned the hard way about that chicken wire. Fox or possum ripped it and had a all you can eat buffet of young chicks I had. I then replaced it with hard wire and added shock wire to the outside of the coop. Later that night I could hear the zapping and squealing of whatever it was learning a lesson. So guess you could say we both learned our lessons. I also have 8 chickens with 3 laying boxes and they only use 2.
After all these years Tommy can still show me something new as a time saver.
Too many nesting boxes for that size of coop. That’s a great design though; I loved this show as a kid!
@Philip Mack bots
The most amazing thing about this video is that Tommy actually allowed Kevin to use some hand tools. Not saws, mind you, just drills, but it's a start. Maybe he can work his way up to orbital sanders next.
Lol
Kevin's fine. A very polished host.
When I grow up I want to be a carpenter just like Tommy!
I love this coop , it looks easy the way it was made , and the chickens have plenty of resting boxes when cold and tired , I certainly wouldn't have it any other way ,thank you for sharing ❤
Nicely done boys, I have only one recommendation to anyone doing it this way. Raise the chicken door so that it’s 5-6” above the floor line. The deep bedding inside won’t be constantly sluffing out of the opening. 😎
Just once I wanted to hear Tommy yell at Kevin when he was trying to drive screws. I picture it sounding like this: "Kevn, dont chowdah up dat drill bit!"
A nice build. My grandfather made one similar, but he dug down 3 foot and made layers of broken glass and soil then the first foot of wire frame. You can let the chooks out during the day so they can run around but make sure to lock them up at night.
Great little set up, wish there were windows, so the Coup could air out.
Rebecca Antram alot of things missing in this build. Also hardware cloth for the pen walls is much more secure against varmints.
@@Aries61 learned a long time ago that chicken wire is not acceptable. the hard way!
Those chickens are going to fry on those hot summer days with no vents 🐔🍗🍗🥵🥵
Yes ! Ventilation is key!!
I am shocked that these dear chickens have no windows! Where is the ventilation in the hot summer heat! It is like a box of suffocation! This was not thought out properly.
Would have been nice if there had been more video of the finished coop.
Yeah, more chicken action!
Built the way a contractor would efficient and simple, need more venting and fewer nesting boxes, that said excellent. Also might have made the chicken door open from outside.
Yup. More venting less chicken nests.... And needs to be WAAAAAAAAYYYY BIGGER. 😉
One nesting box would have been plenty. Two at the most. A coop that size will only house 3 or 4 hens.
Lovely, though you could take it a few steps further. Coops have a tendency to have all the temperature variation of an 18th century barn, which can mean they're uncomfortably hot during the summer and cold during the winter. This can be dealt with by insulating the coop's walls and ceiling, adding weather stripping to openings, and thinking about placement in order to get winter sun but summer shade. I figure the chickens are giving me fresh, ethical eggs to enjoy every morning, so they deserve a few creature comforts.
The chickens we had never complained about the cold. They tasted too good to feel free to complain.
I agree with ventilation Windows but don't think chickens need their coop insulated since they kind of have there own insulation feathers (down) formed every winter. People don't give as much credit towards chickens hardiness as should be.
You might be over EGGaggerating a bit. I live in South Texas and I have made many chicken coops for personal use and for others. As for the heat all you need is vents up top. As to the cold it does get very cold here due to the sea breeze. Gets below freezing at times. Have not gotten a single report of the chickens dying or even getting stressed. In fact our chickens lay year round. If you know chickens at all you know that they will not lay eggs if it gets too hot or too cold. Why? Because they can't regulate the temperature of the eggs so they don't bother. Sooo.
Definitely shouldn't insulate a coop. You need ventilation in a coop especially in winter.
what a property, i'm jelly
Wish I could afford that Festool TSC 55 cordless track saw it looks pretty sweet. That's the one tool I really want from Festool is their track saw out of all of them. I wouldn't mind a Kapex miter saw, but a track saw is what I really want.
I will be modifying this for a full 4x8 sized coop. Just found this video after I built the chicken run for an old coop that I’ll be replacing. Thanks for the ideas!!!
How many are you housing in that coop?
Thanks for making it how you were doing and for having a list of materials in the info area 😉😊
Go back to 8:18min, that laugh 🤣🤣👌
My chicken are just running around my garden during the day and sleep in my living room during the night lmao, they sleep on the window seat so I built them a little ramp and put straw so that it’s comfy. They are only 3 hens and one rooster but they are so cute cuddling in my living room whilst I watch tv
For all the criticism being heaped against this video, it's not a bad build. I do agree that they should have added some ventilation and that six nesting boxes is about five too many, but the concept is sound. Those will be some spoiled chickens for sure!
Chicken wire works fine keeping chickens in...but it's not really adequate for keeping out predators. Need welded-wire mesh or at least hardware cloth...
Love the coop just perfect for a small yard.
This is a clever/cheap build from a carpenter's/homeowner's viewpoint, but my compliments would stop there for a Connecticut-climate coop apparently designed for AT LEAST 6 adult chickens. Others here have mentioned some of this coop's flaws, here are my suggestion: If you insist on this design's 16 sq. ft. floor plan, put in only 3 nesting boxes a couple feet off the floor, thus leaving the full 16' of floor area. Chickens hate being crowded; they get stressed. Get only 2 or 3 chickens. Put in a dedicated roosting bar/pole; this design does not include even that basic amenity. Put in a south-facing window to allow for some winter light/heat on cold, bad-weather days when your birds will be stuck inside this tiny box for days on end. Insulate at least the floor. Run electricity to the coop to power a watering-can heating element in mid-winter, and/or a heat lamp, and/or low-wattage light bulb/timer to extend the "daytime" in mid-winter. Hope for a lot of good weather.I lucked out, buying a property with an old horse loafing shed which I converted to a 80 sq. ft., passive-solar chicken coop. Imagining my hens in this video's tiny, dark, cold, roostless box makes me shudder.....
This is chicken coop, not a pen, why would they spend the whole day in there? did you watch the video all the way to the end where they build a pen? Also they probably did all the extras later for me it was important to see how they build it so I can build something like this. 6 nesting boxes was overkill, we have four chickens and they all use one box they refuse to use the second one.
why would they spend the whole day in there? Because of bad weather. Maybe you live where there is never sub-zero cold, or 3-day snowstorms, or 3 continuous days of rain....bit I do, so my birds have more room, a rroosting bar, and a window for light.
Tim I agree. Too many nesting boxes for such a small coop, and I wouldn't trust cheap chicken wire for the outside pen. They should have used something predator proof. Those chickens are going to be freezing in the winter and stressed out in a small shoebox and when they are outside, they will not be as safe as they should be.

Kudos for the Video! Sorry for the intrusion, I would love your initial thoughts. Have you tried - Machaaldity Coop Blaster (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now)? It is a good exclusive guide for building a chicken coop minus the normal expense. Ive heard some unbelievable things about it and my mate finally got astronomical success with it.
Her house and yard look awesome.
Chicken wire is only good for keeping the chickens in. Galvanized hardware cloth is a better solution for keeping predators out. There are different sizes, 1/2 to 1/4 inch are good. Digging the wire in the ground is a good idea. My friend lost 95% of his flock when raccoons tore through his chicken wire.
I love the fact that he’s using super expensive cordless tools and also a hammer.
My 9 year old son and I enjoyed watching. Are thinking about building a chicken coop.
I love watching professional doing their job, looks very easy and they knew exactly what their doing
Luziaf the Loner this coop will Roast your chickens. There are no Vents!!! 🤦♂️
I built a 4hx4wx8L chicken coop from scraps I was given. We did nest boxes on outside of coop with doors and roof that open. Then on front there is a 4x4 door that opens and a 1x2 door for chickens to come in. On back another 4x4 door this makes it easy to clean out. It has 4x4 post for legs and the frame was built with 4x4 post. Lol it was built heavy.
That track saw tho!!! 😮😮
That roof ought to have a overhang. T11 will delaminate over time with water running down sides.
Also 6 hens don't each need a box. 2 or maybe 3 is good for 6 girls.
And really 3 inch diameter pole allows for ideal roost. If all they have is those boxes to roost on they will get broody.
Hth
I hate T111
A chicken should have atleast 2 sq ft inside the coop and 4 sq ft outside the coop. For a 4x4 chicken coop you could only house at most 8 chickens. 1 nest box for every 3-5 chickens is recommended. I believe you over did it a little with 6 nesting boxes and maybe used up a little bit too much space. You also could have made some ventilation Windows for the summer heat.
This coop seems to have been designed for humans (aesthetics, ease of building, and ease of use) more than for chickens.
Nest boxes are typically placed above eye level for the chickens (because bored chickens will sometimes peck eggs to pieces) and you have too many for a coop that size. If you plan to only ever have six chickens, I can't imagine you would need more than three nesting boxes. You need a roost in the coop where the chickens will sleep. You need to use heavier wire to keep predators out. You need that wire to go down or out at least a foot, maybe more, to stop predators from digging.
What's strange to me is the fact that you know about most of the concerns people usually have in building a coop, but you didn't look up how most people typically build a coop and run. The construction is fine (except the chicken wire). It's just a bad coop.
أبو ف وقت ولا وعلي هاي
I had the same thoughts. Really disappointing over all. Predators will get into that run in under 30 seconds.
Not enough video for a beginner to build this coop. But a great idea. Thanks.
THAT SAW IS COOL SOMTHIN ELSE TO LOOK OUT FOR GREAT TOM
A little small. Why so many nest boxes when it will only hold about 3 average size chickens. 2 is plenty. I'd like to see a bigger, roomier coop. This looks easy, though!
Never expected a rabbit hole of “Tommy from This Old House”
Love it, my only worry would be that the chicken wire is not strong enough to keep predators out..I think I'll use 19ga Galvanized Hardware Cloth, it is much stronger. I would also dig down and bury some of the 19ga Galvanized Hardware Cloth to stop predators from digging under the fence in the run area, and I would fence in under the coop so that they have some shelter from sun and rain. But the video and the coop design are great.
Nice chicken coop. Job well done.
Very inspiring..such a good non, and design..a little small for me, but I just need the outdoor run to go with all those nesting spaces
Aloha from Hawai'I Mountain
I made a door on chicken coop with automatic control to open or close by timer and sunset sensor.
I'd put in a wire floor bc the chickens need more ventilation. they will develop respitory infections with out proper ventalation. and I wouldn't use chicken wire on the sides bc it's to thin and Predators push right through it. other then that its a great design.
these guys work well together.
Chicken wire is designed to keep chickens in - not predators out. Use hardware cloth for better security, unless you live in a predator-free area.
Great little dependable things!.
A lot of fun for the kids while they're young.
Nice, simple design. We just started a homestead channel and hope to feature chicken videos soon.
you are very great man ,.
you really making adults and children happy .
thank you very much .
COULD YOU PLEASE GIVE ME A LIST OF SUPPLIES TO BUILD ONE? HOW MUCH DID THE MATERIALS COST? THANKS SO MUCH
Love how Kevin's eye protection does a great job in protecting the top of his head rather than his eyes while he's working.
lol. oops!
+Dr.Vas :O !
DR. VAS: I noticed the same thing! Shame on him!!! All it takes is one accident to lose an eye like what happened to a guy at work who had NO eye protection!

As someone who raised chickens there is a lot wrong with this coop, and a lot overdone unnecessarily.
1. Chickens need good ventilation, without it they get infections easy.
2. for 2 or 3 chickens this might be large enough, but if that's the case you only need one or two nesting boxes, not 6.
3. the outdoor pen does not need to be that tall. Chickens are no more than 2 feet tall... think of building a house with 60 foot ceilings... unnecessary and a waste of material.
4. Everyone builds a ramp, but it's not needed, even if you clip the birds wings they can still fly small distances. The only time it's needed is when they are young chicks.
Tip: build a place for the birds to roost in the coop, a simple 1 inch dowel will work.
Bruce Wayne Can't answer bout the other stuff, but a ramp is more of a design thing for most people.
Bruce Wayne Actually, the reason why the outdoor pen is that tall is because
It's for people who wants to get inside and if it's too small how would they get inside the pen?
People build the outdoor pen tall enough for a person to comfortably stand in because, as seen in this video, many children and owners want to go in and visit with the animals. Many people now see them as pets, not just working birds. Most of these stylistic choices were done for the humans involved, not chicken use.
chickens do not roost like wild birds, they need 2-4" to keep their feel flat for roosting. Made the same mistake on our coop. A 1" dowel is not a good idea, especially if you get below freezing in wintertime, as it can promote frostbite if they can't get their feet completely under their warm bodies.
Bruce Wayne your right also don't use pressure treated wood
Süper oldu
The best way to stop predators digging under the fence is to bury the side wire about a foot out from the fence in a reverse "L" so that when they dig they hit the wire, they may try a few time but you will notice they always dig close to the fence so keep hitting the wire.
+Peter Mundy ~ you know how it's done, the right way...
I used to be horrible at building chicken coops. Now I'm really good at it! Here's a great resource that will teach you how to build high quality chicken coops: ChickCoop.club
Good point
You're gunna have cooked chickens come summertime!
Seriously! And in Conneticut you need ventilation.
Its painfully obvious they know nothing about chickens except that they lay eggs.
Wuaoo, qué lindo quedó , excelente trabajo muchachos!!! Yo quiero uno también!!! 😊 saludos...
Edith Wortman pero no hay ventanas por aire
Got to love this videos
Thanks for showing how to build it, most videos on here don't...:-)
How do u make the little stair ladder thing so the chickens can get in and out of the coop
This is the exact size coop I had for my 6 hens. Their coop has some serious issues though. Where is the roost?! A sleeping chicken is a pooping chicken. They need a beam to roost on at night so they don't sleep in the nest boxes. For 6 hens, 2 nesting boxes was plenty; theirs was overkill. Lastly, they need hardware cloth over the chicken wire to keep predators out.
A nice chicken coop. And a workshop full of tools to make it
Nice coop. Too many nesting boxes. Typically one box per 3 hens, which even that tends to be too much. Right now I have 2 boxes for 10 hens and they still only lay in 1. Also, no place to roost? Roost should be highest point, and it looks like it would be pushing it in that coop with the height of the nesting box.
Overall, not too shabby. Nice looking hen house.
+Jake Careful. If you come a cross as knowing more than the host, then you get labeled as a Troll.
do you have a material list for the coop itself just so i can put it together because your coop design is exactly what i was thinking and id really like to build it
They never go into major detail on all the projects 🙄
Guesswork.
Is ventilation important? And do you think 6 nest boxes for a coop that holds 3 or 4 hens is too much?
Can this same roof joist method be used on a 6’x6’ chicken coop?
Yes, you'll just turn the 2x4's edgeways instead of flat.
BigRobbo that’s what I was hoping. Thanks!!!
😲 I made that and it was awesome. my chickens love it.
+Melissa Greer I am making it now any suggestions?
Nope u did good.
Maybe if I think about it
Thanks for your support
What is the distance between the apex of the gable and the bottom of the siding?
Using a scrap of linoleum or tin on the floor of the house makes clean up easier. Tin also works on the roof instead of asphalt shingles which can make the coop too hot, with a comer piece of pvc trim for a ridge cap. Also on the tops of all of the walls you need ventilation holes drilled and reinforced w/screen and the clean out door should be constructed as a double door with an inset of screen and a door that closes for winter. ...always use a double layer of hardware cloth for small predators and wire screen for flies. Lastly a 12 inch apron extending out all around the yard sub grade a few inches deep to deter predators from digging under. Now that I think of it ...You only need 3 laying boxes for 6 chickens so you could eliminate the side clean out door entirely and instead hang 3 boxes and clean out from under - using a Dutch door set up with the screen only in the Lower door. Mostly - never use chicken wire. It will not deter large animals. Ask your hardware store what they recommend. Hardware cloth or other heavy wire screen material.
Awesome basic design though. I was looking for a simple design to build for a second coop. Thanks!
Very good chicken coop ,love it
Wow, that’s a nice coop.
Does anyone get the feeling that Kevin is quietly very, very handy?
Hi, can you please share the messure of the segments of all walls, cuts, base, etc.? Thanks
i like it. overall a nice coop wish it was a little wider.
Simple practical construction .
hardware cloth at the bottom of chicken wire will protect chickens from preditors that can reach through the wire
This is a fantastic guide how to make a chicken coop easily, I recommend it
Very nice. The only thing missing is perches for the birds to rest on at night. They need to be high up inside. You don't want the girls pooping all night in the nestboxes.
How many chickens would this be for? Looking to get chickens for egg layers n was wondering what size run you need for 10-12 chickens? Thanks
Hmmm... not so sure about the wood surfaces with ground contact. I assume it’s PT but after several CT winters it will start to rot. Also an extended eves and gables would have been better in inclement weather. A sliding tray in the cleaning area would have been more efficient for service.
I just love it. good job guys.
I built this coop with some changes, my only concern is that the 4x4 made it way to heavy. How much would you estimate yours weighed ?
wow thats some awesome coop!
How'd they construct the chickens?
Hope it doesn’t leak.. love it
Beautiful
The rich helping the rich, always nice to see! But that's ok I'm sure they have a special show every couple of years for Habitat Humanity.
Richard, just how do you know the lady is "rich"? She has a normal house and yard, just like I do & just like many others do. Am I "rich"? Not even close! Furthermore, to educate you on your obvious ignorant logic, "This Old House" has assisted and done numerous projects with "Habitat for Humanity". It would do you well to check the Habitat for Humanity sight before posting such ridiculous comments.
Well, then get rich or die tryin'
thats a rich folks house but ok
I was hoping to see a automatic door on the coop. That way when the sun comes up and the chickens want out I dont have to drag myself out of bed to open the door.
This is a nice set up
I appriciate it
