“We have had this coop for 3 years now and we are very pleased with it. We started out with five hens but wanted to add 3 the next year. I had to buy a minimum of 6 at tractor supply but a friend wanted 3 chicks so I thought "no problem." Unfortunately I had to take the three back and I thought for sure we would have a problem with space but not so! Once reintegrated, the hens were happy together. They only use the coop for laying and sleeping because we have a large protected run, where I keep their feed and water, so that definitely makes a difference. We live in New England so we added more light by way of a window in the roof and a small light on a timer inside. Also, have an automatic door and I highly recommend that- it's a huge convenience!”
“Only took about an hour to assemble, I was in no hurry. I had previously built the stand so I was ready for it. Everything fit well and instructions were good. Our chickens are still getting used to it but I think they will take to it pretty quickly. Seems pretty sturdy so I expect we will get years of use from it. The only improvement that could be made is the addition of something to hold the three roof sections open while cleaning.”
“We have a "night" coop for our chickens, and use these as our "laying coops".. They are fantastic ! Keeps the eggs nice and clean..We bought two of them, and will be buying another one this Spring. After we collect the eggs, we shut the doors, and open the "night" coop. When we let the hens out in the mornings, we open the "laying coops", and shut the "night coop" doors.. So easy to keep clean !”
“I had concerns about the product I purchased and shipping. Your staff eased my concerns and answered my questions almost immediately via email. Thank you for quality service and a quality product. You are awesome!”
“Love this coop, fairly easy to assemble & very easy to clean. Chickens will need additional fenced space to roam, but coop is great for nighttime protection from predators.”
“Love it followed the plans for the legs and frame before I ever had the coop in my possession, it set right up there like it was part of the coop. Cleaning is so easy just slide the tray out. I did use 4x4s for the legs for no other reason than I think it looks better the coop absolutely does not need it but it's so big it would look like it had chicken legs on 2x4s. I have not pulled the trigger to upgrade to the automatic door but its a really cool idea.”
“This is my second Formex coop....I bought the small one and decided to get more chickens. I can't say enough great things about the product-super easy to put together (no tools necessary except the palm of your hand.) Very easy to clean. I've had my small one for 3 years and it is in great condition.”
