a CHICKEN HOUSE I saw at a country auction was the best idea I have ever seen ..
They took an old flat bed trailer with a rotted floor .. it was misc junk they had ... welded a 6ft high frame with door and gang plank for chickens to enter and added a roof and a side and end wall for wind breaks ... the floor, walls and ceiling of the trailer was very fine chicken wire stretched tight over wire cattle panels on the angle iron frame. Would be extra tuff for any snakes or animals to enter ..
Manure could fall thru the floor of the trailer to fertilize grass ... they could move it a length up so no chicken poop accumulated inside or under it ... it had the usual nest boxes, roost, feed and water bowls in it ....
If you have some kind of old junk trailer ... talk to a high school ag teacher and see if the welding class would like to turn it into a chicken house .... most times these kids are looking for projects and do not have the money to buy pipe etc to make something ...

I'd almost be willing to let my DH get chickens if we had a cute coop like that!
