Based on our product data, most coops require standard woodworking tools:

• Basic tools: Circular saw, drill, measuring tape, level, square
• Materials: Primarily wood construction with options for plywood, OSB, polycarbonate, and asphalt shingles for roofing
• Hardware: Screws, hinges, latches, and hardware cloth for predator protection

Our plans come in three difficulty levels:

• Easy: Perfect for beginners with basic DIY experience
• Medium: Suitable for those with some woodworking experience
• Advanced: Designed for experienced builders

Each plan clearly states the difficulty level and required skills.

We recommend pressure-treated lumber for the frame and any ground contact points, with exterior-grade plywood or OSB for walls and floors. Cedar is an excellent premium option for better weather resistance. All our plans specify appropriate wood types for each component.

Our coop designs incorporate the essential 1:10 ratio of ventilation to floor space through:

• Adjustable vents near the roof
• Cross-ventilation windows
• Gap between walls and roof (protected from rain)
• Covered openings to prevent drafts while maintaining airflow

Our plans feature several cleaning-friendly design elements:

• Full-height or partly access doors for easy interior access
• Removable dropping boards under roosts
• Smooth interior surfaces
• Tilt-out nesting boxes for easy egg collection
• Raised floor design to prevent moisture buildup

Regular maintenance is key for coop longevity:

• Weekly: Clean dropping boards and refresh bedding
• Monthly: Deep clean, check hardware and latches
• Seasonally: Inspect roof, ventilation, and predator proofing
• Annually: Treat wood surfaces and check structural integrity
