Keeping chickens is a rewarding hobby which allows you to enjoy a taste of the good life, as well as the taste of fresh eggs. To ensure that your hens will always be as happy as possible, and always lay the most delicious eggs, it is important to invest in a high-quality chicken coop to give your feathered friends a warm and comfortable home. Cotswold Chickens are a specialist stockist of chickens, chicken coops and every accessory you could ever need to give your hens a luxurious lifestyle.

We stock a range of wooden and plastic chicken coops which are suitable for a variety of budgets and requirements. Read on to learn more of the advantages of each style of coop.

Wooden Chicken Coops

Our most popular chicken coop is the Shipston hen house, which can add a touch of traditional style to your garden whilst also providing your hens with a durable and comfortable home. If you are looking for a chicken coop which will complement your wooden gates by weathering in a natural way, then a wooden coop cannot be matched.

The Hen Arch is a piece of garden furniture which will blend seamlessly into any garden design. This hen house is tall enough to allow easy access for egg collecting and cleaning, and has removable perches as well as a comfortable nesting area.

Plastic Chicken Coops

If you are looking for a more contemporary style of chicken coop, a plastic coop is ideal. A busy lifestyle can leave you with little time for cleaning your coop, which is why an easy-to-clean Omelet chicken coop can offer a great alternative to a conventional timber-framed hen house. The Omelet Eglu Classic features twin-walled insulation to keep your chickens warm in the winter and cool in the summer, as well as a sliding waste tray and removable lid to make tidying up after your chickens much quicker and easier.

Whether you prefer the traditional style of a wooden coop, or the modern features of plastic chicken coops, Cotswold Chickens can provide the perfect place for your hens to call home.

For the majority of the year your chickens will be quite self-sufficient, but during the winter, they will require a little extra attention to keep them clucking contentedly. Winter chicken coops from Cotswold Chickens can provide your hens with the comfortable home they require, and can keep your hens happy throughout the colder months.

We have a range of chicken coops which are ideal for winter, and have detailed some of their features below.

Warm and Cosy

Winter weather can make life uncomfortable for chickens who love pecking in the garden, but a chicken coop can provide them with a cosy home to retreat to when temperatures fall. Cotswold Chickens are stockists of Omlet chicken coops, which are designed to keep your hens warm in the winter and cool in summer.

Twin-walled insulation can provide the protection from the elements that your chickens will require, whilst roosting bars and a nesting box can help your hens to carry on laying happily throughout the winter.

Added Security

During the winter, hungry foxes may become more determined to access your hen house; sneaking under wooden gates and burrowing under fencing. This is why it is important to invest in a secure chicken coop to keep your hens safe from pesky predators. The sturdy design and high-quality materials used in the fabrication of our range of chicken coops means that you can rest assured that your hens will be kept out of harm’s way.

Easy Access and Cleaning

Just as your chickens will be reluctant to remain outdoors for too long, you probably won’t be too eager to spend a long time in the cold cleaning your chicken coop or collecting eggs. The Omlet Eglu Classic and Cube are both easy to clean, which can help you to maintain your chicken coop without freezing, whilst our best-selling chicken coop, the Shipston Hen House, features a large front door and a good height to enable you to quickly and easily collect the eggs.

For cheerful chickens throughout the winter, look no further than one of the winter chicken coops on offer at Cotswold Chickens.
