Chicken Coops

At FortyRoots, we build custom chicken coops designed for real, everyday use. Our coops are thoughtfully crafted for families who rely on them daily — built to be durable, functional, and easy to maintain through every season. Customers can personalize their coop with their choice of colors and door and window orientations, creating a structure that fits both their flock and their property.

A large, easy-to-open door provides full access at a comfortable working height, making cleaning simple and efficient. All latches are designed to accept a lock or carabiner for added predator protection. Interior roosting bars comfortably accommodate 12–16 chickens.

A thoughtfully designed roof extension provides added shelter over the enclosed run, giving your flock protection from rain and creating a more comfortable outdoor space in changing weather.

Durable, small-opening hardware cloth helps protect your flock from predators and pests. The black vinyl coating blends into the background, creating a cleaner, more open view into the run.

Front-opening nesting boxes are set at an ideal height, making egg collection easy and enjoyable for children and adults alike. The wide-opening design also makes routine cleaning fast and convenient.

Windows open from the exterior, allowing you to manage airflow without climbing into the coop — because practical design matters.

The oversized run door allows comfortable entry for maintenance and flock care. Designed with secure locking capability and an interior release latch for added convenience and safety.

Generous roof overhangs shield the base of the coop and help keep the enclosed run protected from rain and runoff — especially during long stretches of wet Minnesota weather.

The enclosed run includes a convenient chicken door, giving you the option to expand your flock’s space or allow free ranging when desired.

Every coop is painted to order with your choice of hen house color, trim color, and roof color — allowing you to create a look that complements your home and property.
