Explore our handpicked selection of the finest chicken coops available on the market, ensuring the perfect home for your feathered friends.
1. VOUNOT Chicken Coop and Run
Though compact, VOUNOT Chicken Coop offers comfort and functionality for small and medium-sized chickens.
After assembling and using the VOUNOT Chicken Coop, we can attest to the comfort and quality it offers for our small and medium-sized chickens. The waterproof and warm asphalt roof protects our feathered friends from harsh weather, making their living space cosy and secure.
In addition to this, the coop features a spacious run, giving chickens plenty of room to roam and stretch their wings. Its size is approximately 190 x 100 x 64 cm, making it suitable for other small animals like quail, rabbits, and guinea pigs too. We particularly appreciate the removable tray that simplifies the cleaning process, ensuring that our chickens live in hygienic surroundings.
However, this coop isn't ideal for everyone. Larger chicken breeds may find it cramped, and it can only house 2-3 small to medium-sized chickens. Furthermore, the build quality may struggle against rough weather conditions. Regardless, the VOUNOT Chicken Coop is a decent choice for those with limited space or just starting with their small chicken flock.
Features
Pros
- Waterproof and warm asphalt roof
- Spacious run for better movement
- Removable tray for easy cleaning
Cons
- Not suitable for larger chicken breeds
- Build quality may not endure rough weather
- Limited capacity - houses 2-3 chickens only

Updated 23 hours ago2. Cocoon Large 8ft Chicken Coop
Our verdict: the Cocoon Large 8ft Chicken Coop is a great choice for those with 3-4 medium-sized birds or 5-6 bantams, offering a practical and affordable solution.
Having used the Cocoon Large 8ft Chicken Coop, we were impressed by the overall construction and design. Made from superior quality wood, it's built to withstand the test of time and looks fantastic in any back garden. The unique features, such as the metal-lined pull-out tray and four Perspex windows, make maintaining and observing the coop a breeze.
The access ramp inside the run allows for easy entry and exit for the chickens, while the locking arm for the inner door lets you securely close the roost at night. One downside we noticed is the height; standing at only 103.2cm, it can be a bit tricky to clean and access the inner sections. However, the fully opening roof does help with cleaning and ventilation, making it more manageable.
While putting the coop together, we found the instructions to be a bit lacking, and labelling of parts would have significantly improved the assembly process. Overall, if you're looking for a quality chicken coop with ample space for your birds and a good set of practical features, the Cocoon Large 8ft Chicken Coop is worth considering.
Features
Pros
- Spacious design for up to 4 medium-sized birds
- Metal-lined pull-out tray for easy cleaning
- Quality wood construction with easy-open roof
Cons
- Not walk-in height - only 103.2cm tall
- Restricted to delivery within England and Wales
- Assembly instructions could be clearer

Finding the perfect chicken coop in Kewstoke can be a daunting task, so we've put together a helpful buying guide to make the process easier. We'll go through the key features to consider when choosing the best product for your needs, ensuring you make an informed decision.
Size and Space
First and foremost, consider the size and space required for your chicken coop. Assess the number of chickens you plan to keep and ensure the coop provides enough room for them to move comfortably. As a rule of thumb, allow 1 to 1.5 square feet per chicken within the coop, and at least 10 square feet per chicken in the run.
Material and Construction
Ensure your chicken coop is made from high-quality, durable materials. The most common choices include wood and metal, both of which have their advantages. Wooden coops often have better insulation, while metal coops tend to be more durable and require less maintenance. Prioritise sturdy construction and weather-resistant features.
Access and Cleaning
Having easy access to the coop and its various areas is essential, as it will make cleaning, egg collection, and feeding much simpler. Look for a design with accessible nesting boxes and adequate doors or openings that will make it easy to maintain a clean environment for your chickens.
Ventilation and Lighting
Proper ventilation is crucial for the health of your chickens, as it helps prevent the buildup of moisture and harmful gases. Look for a coop with ample ventilation, such as windows, vents, or slats. Adequate lighting is also important, as it can impact egg production; opt for a coop with windows or other sources of natural light.
Protection Against Predators
Keeping your birds safe from predators is vital. Ensure the coop and run have a secure, lockable door and robust fencing that extends underground to deter digging predators. Features like hardware cloth, sturdy latches, and a fully enclosed run can help protect your flock.
Additional Features
Some coops come with a variety of extra features that can make your life easier and keep your chickens happy. These may include built-in feeders and waterers, removable roosting bars, and ramps for your chickens to access different levels of the coop. Assess your needs and preferences to find a coop with the right features for you.
