5×10 Medium Chicken Coop Plans For 12 Chickens

Elevating your chicken coop helps minimize most issues, including floods while keeping predators at bay. This simple, modern-looking chicken coop is designed to provide a safe and comfortable environment for your flock. 

The coop offers 50 square feet of interior space, which is enough to house up to 12 chickens. Inside the hutch, there are sturdy and comfortable perches for your girls to roost and rest at night. The roosting bars are assembled in a way that they won’t distract you when cleaning or collecting eggs. There is also a spacious nesting box with 5 comfortable compartments for your laying birds. 

This coop’s design includes a sizable door for you to access the inside quickly to collect eggs and clean. A chicken-sized door with a ramp on the opposite side makes it easy for the chickens to enter and exit the coop. 

Under the coop is an ample haven for your pets and chickens to take refuge from the afternoon sun. With top-grade pressure-treated boards and excellent craftsmanship, your coop can last years. You can even paint the coop to protect it against inclement weather and elements, helping lengthen its lifespan while improving its appearance.
