3×3 Small Chicken Coop & Run Plans For 6 Chickens

Are you a passionate bird lover considering the chicken-rearing hobby but are constrained by your small yard? A small yet functional chicken can be a great starting point.

This 3 x 3 chicken coop is small enough to fit in most backyards but big enough to accommodate up to 6 chickens. Even with its compact design, it is complete with an aviary, a nesting box, and a hutch. The wire-meshed aviary provides enough space for your chickens to explore during the day and a ladder leads up to the sanctuary, where the feathered friends can take refuge at night.

Inside the hutch are comfortable perches to suit your flock’s roosting and perching nature.

For your laying chickens, there is a protruding nesting box with enough compartments for the flock. Even better, the nesting box has been designed to allow you to easily harvest freshly laid eggs through the convenient door. An 11″ x 1′ 3″ window has also been installed on the left side to ensure your chickens get maximum hours of light for consistent egg production.

When it comes to cleaning, both the aviary and the hutch have doors for easy access and hassle-free cleaning.

The coop’s framework utilizes pressure-treated lumber, and the entire structure sits on a concrete and mortared-brick foundation for durability. The solid construction also helps keep predators away. Precisely, high attention to detail has been intertwined into every aspect of the coop to ensure it is very secure and remains comfortable for your birds year-round.

If you are keen on aesthetics, you can paint the wooden components to match other structures on your property.
