Chicken Coops & Runs UK (2026)
For a small backyard flock of 3–6 hens, a coop with integrated run is almost always the right answer. The official guidance: 1 sq metre of coop space and 2 sq metres of run per bird, minimum — though happy hens want more.
Cocoon Chicken Coop Hen House with Nest Box
The honest entry-level coop. Nest box, ramp, integrated wire run, sloped roof — everything a starter flock needs without paying premium prices. Best for 2–3 small breed hens.
Best for: 2–3 hens, first-time keepers, smaller back gardens.
Dimensions: 152 × 61 × 110 cm

Chicken Coop Hen House Poultry Ark with Nest
A step up in length — 175cm of integrated run lets a flock of 3–4 actually move and forage. The ark format (sloped sides) sheds rain better than flat-walled coops.
Best for: 3–4 hens, wetter regions. Watch-outs: bury a wire skirt around the perimeter for foxes.
Dimensions: 175 × 95 × 100 cm, 38 kg

Pets Imperial Grey Dorchester Chicken Coop
The Pets Imperial Dorchester is the premium pick on this page: heavier timber, properly finished joints, and the grey finish weathers nicely without immediate re-treatment. Same footprint as the Poultry Ark above but a noticeably tighter build.
Best for: long-term backyard flocks, owners who want to buy once.
Dimensions: 175 × 95 × 100 cm, 38 kg
