If you're looking to
keep chickens in a small garden,
the Shire Hen House is your ideal choice. This
compact
chicken coop is designed for urban dwellers with limited
outdoor space, or for those who want to keep a small number of
chickens.
A Safe Home for Your Chickens
The Shire Hen House provides a sheltered, safe home for 2-3
chickens. A built-in roosting box keeps your chickens warm at night,
gives them a space to lay eggs, and provides them with shelter from the
elements. Outside is a secure open run where your chickens can exercise
on the grass without threat from predators.
The roosting box can be closed
up at night to keep your chickens warm and safe. It's also useful to
keep your chickens secure when you need to move the hen house.
Easy Access
Collecting eggs is made simple with a hinged roof on the
roosting box. Opening the roof of the poultry ark also
allows you to pick up your
chickens, and provides easy access for cleaning.
British built with ethical timber
This British-built Shire chicken coop is manufactured in the
UK using
FSC certified timber. It is constructed to be long lasting and to look
great in your garden, with a pine tongue and groove roosting
box and OSB
(Oriented Strand Board) roof and floor. The pine is pre treated using a
high quality anti-fungicide wood protection primer. The roof
protects your chickens from the elements, keeping the nesting area
comfortable, dry, and free of draughts. Dry and warm chickens are happy
chickens, laying better quality eggs, and laying more frequently.
Being a Chicken Owner
With millions of people across the UK already growing their
own vegetables, keeping chickens is the logical next step. Chickens are
friendly pets, giving years of companionship and affection. They bring
your garden to life with movement, sounds, and colour. As a chicken
owner, you can choose to have breakfast served with free
range eggs collected fresh from your garden that
morning. And your vegetable patch will be kept fertile with a constant
supply of organic compost.
