We may have found the best portable chicken coop on the market! We've tried a lot of DIY coop styles over the years, and we definitely have some pros and cons of each of the iterations we've tried, but this Alumi-Coop has been hands-down the best one we've tried on the market! If you don't want to go the DIY-route, this coop is definitely worth a look.
