It is smaller than the picture allude to. However I was able to assemble it myself. Though markings and such weren't always clear. Only tools I needed were screw drivers , a crescent wrench and a tape measure. I have three chicks that it works perfect for at this time. I will need to add to it's dimensions possibly if they become too big. It is a nice looking coop and my girls (chicks) love their new home. It's a great starter coop more ideal to 2 or 3 full grown hens.
