Innovation Pet Deluxe Farm House Chicken Coop, Up to 8 Chickens

So i do like this coop we got 2 on clearance. I don't think they will be carrying this model coop anymore.
It is good for in a pinch or for a small young flock acclimating or chicks being exposed to the older ones. It fits maybe 3-4 standard size chickens. It would fit maybe 6-8 small breeds.
I painted this coop and do like it but will be looking into other options for next season especially if i want to add to the flock. I will keep atleast 1 for chicks or quarantine.

I am concerned about the Winter i will need to do extreme winterizing for the snow.

It is good for a beginner but you will eventually want to upgrade.

I bought this earlier this year for my 8 chickens. First of all, the thing wasnt east to build. The instructions were *pretty* clear, but certain pieces needed to go in very specific places, so my friend and I found ourselves nailing and then removing pieces to place them somewhere else. None of the pieces lined up very well, which makes for a more unstable coop. It wasnt tbe hardest thing tobuild, two 22 year olds did it with no prior assembly experience, but there was a lot of trial and error.
The placement of locks and their recieving end are misaligned on every. Single. Door. And no, this is not because of misplacement. I can only lock one latch on each door, which is a safety risk from predators.
Next, it hasn't even been a year and the thing is falling apart. It's pretty hard to clean, the coop does have a tray that slides out and can be washed. It doesnt slide easy for me. You cannot get into the coop fully. My biggest pet peeve is not having access to the chickens on the coop side, where I cannot reach them.
This coop is not large enough for 8 chickens, at least not standard size, which in the tractor supply description , it says it can hold 8 standard size fowl. Fortunately, when I had 8, they were pullets and cockerels, so they were smaller. Now even with just the 4 ameraucanas, I still dont think they have enough room to live in. Any more than 4 and they're practically living on top of eachother.
Overall, it's not the worst starter coop for the beginner chicken owner, who may have 3 or 4 hens, but you really have to pay attention on what part you're nailing down where. And just know that it wont last very long. Cheap wood begins to fall apart. I would not recommend this coop, unless you are pretty strapped for cash to spend on a coop. You get what you pay for.

I bought this coop in February, it is now October and the wood is starting to splinter. If it's misty out or if it's been raining, the wood warps and the doors don't work properly. Also the window over the back hatch warped so bad that it's starting to fall off...
