Snap Lock Formex Chicken Coop, Large White (Up to 8 Chickens)/No Accessories Reviews

4.6 Rating 358 Reviews
While there are a few good things about this coop, the misleading description outweighs the good. The dimensions page is blurry and are hard to read properly. It's listed for 7-8 standard breed, but it must be under chicken factory requirements. A backyard flock is recommended at 3-4 square feet per bird. The floor space, excluding the nest boxes is less than 9 square feet. That's only enough for 3, maybe 4, standard size birds. I wish there was a way to return this product because I wasted a lot of money on the coop, and now I'm out tons more because I have to build extensions to make it suitable for the 7-8 birds I have. If you have more than 4 birds, please don't buy this coop because they will not have enough room to move around, which causes behavioral problems.

It is exactly as pictured. Easy to put together, easy to use, but the plastic pieces are a little flimsier than I expected. We accidentally bent a piece during install. Overall happy with my purchase.

Absolutely love this coop, myself and my chickens. We have 4 and they fit great in there, could probably add a couple more before they run out of room. Super sturdy, built to last. Easy to clean, doesn’t hold smell, good ventilation. Couldn’t be happier with this coop!

So we were concerned at first, it seems really small. But after getting it setup and the girls using it it's actually perfect for my 8 hens. The auto-door was difficult, the video didn't match the size we had so we had to do a few holes before we had it perfect. That being said that thing is AWESOME. It works great and we don't have to worry about their safety. I highly recommend this coop.

We bought two of these coops last year.. we have 19 hens, and 3 roosters, we use them for "nesting" coops.. We have a very large coop that the chickens "sleep" in at night.. They are let out in the mornings, and the door on the big coops is closed.. they run around, eat, drink,, etc,, then they use these Formax coops for nesting. Late afternoon we collect the eggs, and shut and lock the doors on both of the "nesting" coops.. and open the door to the large coop for them at night. This keeps the laying nests nice and clean, right along with the eggs. Now, we are going to be getting another 20 hens, and will be ordering one or two more of the Formax coops..

Very easy to put together, extremely high-quality, seems like it will last for a couple decades.

#1. I did NOT order the Formex coop on 4.30.20! I ordered it on 4.7.20! #2. When I ordered it you advertised that it was in STOCK! IT WASN'T!! In my opinion, that was fraudulent!
