I figured which pets don't require a lot of Maintance and are benificial (Chickens) and then i figured well, I will need to build a chicken coop, but first decided to search the web for any pre fabricated coop, and when I came across this one,I figured rather than spend a whole weekend building a coop I'll purchase one that suits my needs. So long story short, this is a good quility well designed coop and I highly recommend it !
