GreenRoofChickenCoop.com provides one of the most detailed plans that we have seen. If you like this chicken coop and are looking to keep your flock small, the Green Roof Chicken Coop may be a great choice for you. The original Green Roof Chicken Coop support 2-4 chickens. The design is unique in the world of chicken coops. It provides easy access to the hen house, nesting area and has a front gate that makes it easy to rustle the chickens for free ranging. All of the access points also makes it easy to clean. By design, the floor of the chicken coop is supposed to be a pine mulch. The idea is that the chicken waste can easily be washed through the mulch into the ground and help minimize the odor. Their chicken coop was designed by an architect, the plans are comprehensive building instructions and the cost is $34.95. The benefits of the green roof are both aesthetic and help insulate the chicken coop. If you are a suburban chicken owner, we think the Green Roof Chicken Coop is a great option. For people that live in town with a nice sized back yard, this chicken coop can really blend into any landscaping design. You can paint or stain this chicken coop to match your fencing. You can plant flowers, grass or small produce plants to compliment your back yard flower beds or garden. We also think this is perfect for 2 chickens or 4 free ranging chickens. If you look at the testimonials page, you'll see one of the builders modified the design and attached a chicken run. We think that's a great idea! Also, once you have the plans, you could build two of these coops and connect them with a rectangular run. If you really wanted to get creative, you could build a chicken yard anchored by 4 of these chicken coops all connected by chicken runs. The chicken coops could anchor the corners and the chicken runs could serve as a fence line for the chicken yard. Anyway, we're just brain storming but after taking a look at this design, it sparked some imaginative thought!
