“I absolutely LOVE these coops, so much so, that I have 2 of the large ones. I have 18 ladies and a female duck that split their time between these. The only downfall is that I ended up having to get stands so that the weight was not sitting directly on the skirt on the bottom. I made ramps to aid my duck easy entrance. Ventilation is good, the door has a nice latch that makes opening and closing easy. Cleaning and bedding replacement is easy with the 2 trays that pull out. Shipping was quick. I was missing the nest dividers and carabiners, so I emailed the company. They sent replacements immediately and free of charge.”
“Easy to assembly, lay all parts out where you can see them, along with the picture. I wish we had not ordered the run and had built our own stand, which would have been a little lower, as I am 5'2". The coop is easy to clean. The eight chicken coop would be better suited for four large chickens. I ordered eight and will have to buy another coop for a few. My chicks are five weeks old and it is just right for them now. This coop needs a window, and ways to hang things up out of the way. It is good and thick so I am hopeful that it will keep them cool in summer and warm in winter. I may try to add on to this coop from the back panel underneath. The vents are good and work well. Four of my chicks are Lavender Orphingtons, two Barred Rocks and two Golden Comets, so large standard breeds... Quick delivery!!!”
“Really like this coop. I was able to put it together with my husband reading directions. He usually builds everything himself, but he had his shoulder joint replaced and wasn't able to. I have never put anything together before this; so I was really happy it went together so easily. My chickens seem pretty happy with it as well.”
“So far, my chickens love this coop. I love how tightly it locks up at night, I never have to worry about predators. A quick note, because this coop is fairly light weight, and it gets very windy around here, we did purchase trampoline anchors and strapped it down. We did not want it to take the chickens on a wild ride:-)”
“The Formex chicken coop is a great quality coop. It‚Äôs like one of those kids playhouses that seem to last forever. It is easy to assemble and very sturdy. I like how easy it is to clean and to collect the eggs. Our chickens seem to be happy in their new home. I also like how fast it was delivered. The box was ripped in some places but the product itself was not damaged or missing any pieces. I am happy with our purchase and would definitely recommend buying it from this site. They have the lowest price I‚Äôve seen on this model.”
“Near perfect. Our third one! Great for my wife's small breeding flocks. They work excellent, are easy to assemble and (if you consider maintenance of other coop styles) are decently priced.
One of them came with questionable carabiners. We bought some to fit better and used the original ones for something else.
As the wife's farm hand, I appreciate that she can assemble it herself and I don't need to paint it or re-roof it. Win!
Very well engineered and practical.”
