The structure was medium difficulty to put together, and looks cute if you wanted it for say, a Country Barbie Doll Farm House....gosh, this is photography trickery for sure....so I didn't "get" the measurements & yes, it fooled me.  I will have to buy an extension.  No way would more than 1 chicken have enough space.  Say 3-5 hens could live in this, well that's not true.
