The list of materials provided is especially helpful.
I love the fact that each co-op plan is available as an individual pdf, which you can print as many times as you need (so you can keep multiple copies on hand).
These are the plans you need if you want them to provide you with the exact dimensions and materials you need.
These plans also take into account all the fundamentals of the chicken coop, including insulation, ventilation, lighting, coop placement, nesting, perches, litter collection, and protection from predators! !

final verdict
If you’re looking for chicken coop plans, you really can’t go wrong with any of these options.
Both are digital products, which means that the moment you submit payment, they will arrive in your inbox and you can access them immediately.
They’re also available at a fantastic price, and will actually save you a considerable amount of money in the long run, since you’ll learn exactly what you need (and, more importantly, what you don’t).
although, if I had to make a suggestion, it would be to build a chicken coop by bill keine.
I think your personal experience gives your plans an edge. I also love all the bonuses you get.
however, take a look at both and see for yourself.
