Not very many chicken coops are both easy to build and portable. This DIY Hoop Chicken Coop, is very easy to build and can be transported by one person to any new location you need it to be at.
It is also the perfect accommodation for your chickens during the winter months. The straw bales that line the perimeter and the hay that you lay on the ground will keep them warm and happy all winter long.

Here’s What You’ll Need:
- 2×4 Treated Lumber
- Electrical Conduit
- Quick Hoops Bender
- Pipe Clamps
- Welded Wire Fence
- Bubble Wrap
- Greenhouse Plastic
- Wood Nails Or Screws
- Hardwood Garden Stakes
- Straw Bales
- Hay
- Shade Cloth (optional)
The main structure is made from A frame lumber supports. The roof is supported by the hoops and the wire mesh. During the winter months greenhouse plastic can be used to keep the heat in. When summer comes along you can replace the plastic with shade cloth.
Love this cheap, lightweight, all season chicken coop. Adopted from the more common dutch hoop chicken coop plans. More suited for your mature chickens than the younger chicks. It even has nesting boxes at the back.
