Giveaway: Chicken Coop from My Pet Chicken

April 2, 2012

A few years ago, I decided to make my dream of owning chickens a reality. It was a huge leap into the unknown for me. I had researched, read and talked to a few people that I knew of at the time keeping backyard chickens. I was nervous, but I decided to go for it. The worst that would happen would be that I didn’t care for it and someone would have to take my chickens and I would sell the coop. The turning point for me in taking the step to chickens was finding and discovering My Pet Chicken.

Their website was amazing. I drooled over chicken coops that they had available. I even called up their customer service a few times just to talk and have a few questions answered that I could not find answers for on my own. I was impressed but mostly, they helped me believe in myself and that I actually could keep chickens.

You see, a few years ago, there was very little information out there in one good concise place where people who kept backyard chickens could go for answers. This was a place that seemed to understand my goals, situation and needs. I felt as though they held my hand every step of the way even after my chicks had arrived. I owe my chicken keeping to them.

Wonderfully, I soon discovered all about the fascinating world of backyard chickens. I was hooked. I started a blog for a number of reasons. First, I wanted to keep a sort of online journal about their stories, findings and lessons that I learned from the flock. Second, I had found myself compiling and bookmarking information on certain topics that I wanted to learn more about. I decided to start writing posts about these issues and referencing my bookmarks in them to make it easier to find a truly comprehensive place to store things that I was learning. Lastly, I wanted to be a voice. I wanted to be a person that encouraged those that were still on the fence about keeping a flock in how easy and rewarding a keeping a flock could be.

Here are the basics for starting out:

First, you will need to determine which chicken breeds are right for you and your family. Here is an awesome tool that only My Pet Chicken has to help you find your way. This helps you to stay focused as there are so many beautiful breeds and eggs.

You will need to set up a brooder. Did you know that My Pet Chicken makes it simple with their brooder kit? I love this and this makes it so easy! I also did a helpful post on brooders that can be found here.

As the chicks grow you can find lots of information online from My Pet Chicken here and also here from Tilly’s Nest.

Finally, you will need to find a chicken coop and run to keep your six week and older chickens safe and happy. It will need to have a run, roosts, nesting boxes (1 per 4 hens)

The Giveaway
Clubhouse Chicken Coop
from our generous sponsor My Pet Chicken
for 3-4 standard chickens or 6 bantams

front of the Clubhouse
inside the Clubhouse
two nesting boxes for laying eggs

  9. LOVE My Pet Chicken and we could REALLY use a coop. We got 5 baby chicks in our brooder. We have a special needs daughter and she LOVES all pets, so we want to let her experience as much as she can in this life! The plan was for me to build a coop but I was just diagnosed with lupus and have become very sick and now lack the strength in my hands to even build the darn coop! 🙂 Praying we finally get a lucky day!!! Love your blog too! I will be making mexican tortilla soup tomorrow! YUMM-O!

  11. Hi Melissa! Thank you so much for the the great website! I always enjoy reading your posts. Ever since I was a little girl I've loved chickens and since meeting you and learning about your beautiful girls I've had an interest in keeping my own. Maybe winning this coop will be just what I need to jump in head first. Thank you for being such a great friend and thank you for being such a great resource of knowledge! ~Shannon

  14. Hi my name is Brady and i live in New Jersey.My friend and I have been raising chickens for two years now and we are only 13! We love chickens. The only problem is we don't have a coop. He has three bantams and I have three bantams. We can not afford a coop, and this is a great opportunity. Please consider us we love our chickens and want them to live in a safe environment thanks! My email is jbwilson98@gmail.com

  24. This is a great coop. I am getting my first chicks in May and could really really use this coop… I love reading your blog and follow you and My Pet Chicken on Facebook and I actually ordered my chicks from my Pet Chicken.They are wonderful !!! good luck to everyone <3

  36. This would be WONDERFUL for my beautiful Silkies. My name is Maresa and my email is lvnkedogz@comcast.net. My Pet Chicken is a WONDERFUL site and I love reading the stores and seeing all the photos of other peoples chickens. I also have a Tillie, but she's my dog who also loves the chickens 🙂 God bless

    Maresa

  37. Brooke anothernametoremember@gmail.com I love you site because I get to meet other folks who love chickens as much as I do. I've learned so much and I've shared my own experiences and hope that I helped others as well. This chicken coop is my dream coop. My chickens would be living the high life! The kiddos would also enjoy working with the coop and collecting those eggs! Good luck everyone!

  40. We've had chickens for about 9 years now. Found My Pet Chicken last year and ordered 9. They are egg laying machines and out of all the chickens I've had they are the kookiest and friendliest. Thanks you guys for the great chickens and the great giveaway!

  44. I'm getting my first chickens in a couple weeks, and this coop would be awesome! I'm currently re-fitting a dog kennel to be a coop, but I keep drooling over the beautiful coops I see advertised like this one.

  45. Hi, I would love to have this coop. We have had chickens for 2 years now, and are in love with them. OUr flock keeps growing. This small coop would be perfect for our Bantams when they go broody, or for our chicks, before they get large enough to put in the big coop with the adults. = Amy , jnpayne33@yahoo.com.

  51. I love the information available to us as chicken lovers. Thanks for sharing!! I am currently raising 12 baby chicks in my kitchen as the coop is not ready. A friend of mine is giving me an additional 4-5 bantams. My kids are going to college and joining the Marines so my chickens will fill the Empty Nest Syndrome-lol.

  56. I need a new little coop for my bantams. My dog actually got a hold of my lovely splash Silkie this morning and she didn't make it 🙁 Good luck to everyone!

  57. I am super excited for this coop giveaway. We got 10 baby chicks in March and are already wanting more! I love your blog, so much neat information! My Pet Chicken has helped us with all of our chicken questions! Thank you for doing such a neat giveaway!

  59. Mrsbrady@roadrunner.com
    What a generous giveaway! We have chickens on hold until next spring because we can't build a coop in time. My mom just passed and all of our spare time is being spent getting my dad moved to an apartment. This would allow us to get chickens this year! Thanks for the chance to win!

  65. Sarah link61181@yahoo.com I have been dying to start my own backyard flock but have no where to keep my ladies!! Was thinking about trying to build my own coop but would love to have such an amazing excellent coop as this one. I am an avid fan of My Pet Chicken and this site as well! What an excellent offer to win this coop! 🙂

  70. This is awesome! I have a big shed with chickens, but lately the newer chickens are being picked on by the older guinnies. I need another area for the 2 bullies! My name is Debbie and my email is DebbsHereNow@aol.com. Thank you so much for this chance!

  72. We have raised chickens for years but when I found MY PET CHICKEN I was in heaven. It leads me to other wonderful sites like yours! Love your enthusiasm. 🙂

  75. I love the Coop design & I'm so glad I found your site. I want to get started on Buckeye chicks – I haven't had a place for Chickens in a while and I'm excited to get them again. Thank you – Lorrie lavolily@gmai.com

  76. Judy hezik2@windstream.net

    Would be great to win a coop! We had a few chickens in with our guineas that were free ranging, but the chickens wouldn't hang out with the guineas in the barn. They decided they liked the bbq grill on the front porch to roost upon! O.O So, they got rehomed to someone with a proper coop, and so I either need to get a coop, or screen in the porch to keep them off it, before I can try chickens again.

    Have a great day! Thanks for the giveaway chance!

  77. I have been enjoying your BLOG for the last month, as I found you through My Pet Chicken. It would be great to win as my Birthday is the 13th of April and this would be a great gift. Your story about starting your own flock sounds alot like me. Thank you for all you share. Donna.stone51@verizon.net

  78. I love this coop! We already have chickens that we keep for eggs, all purchased from My Pet Chicken. My husband and son built a nice coop for them but my daughter is wanting to start raising Sumatra's for show chickens as part of her FFA project. We will have to have a separate coop and yard for them and this would be perfect!

  79. Oh Wow! This is awesome. I grew up on a farm as a child. The one thing I regretted most for my children was that they would never have a chance to experience the joys of country living like I did. A year ago we built and moved into our house, on our own land. The first thing we did was build a chicken coop & run. My children love going out to gather the eggs. Your website is wonderful. Thank you for offering this wonderful opportunity to someone who otherwise may not have been able to afford it. Jamie
    mccormick_jamie@hotmail.com

  80. This coop would be perfect for my yard! I'm so excited for the opportunity to win it! I've been wanting to add a coop and hens especially since each home in my neighborhood came with one cow and chickens when they were built in 1937! Love your site and love My Pet Chicken! Thanks… Deborah debs7429@yahoo.com

  81. Oh, this would be perfect for my Seramas. I'm keeping them separate from my other chickens, and this would be a palace for them!

  82. Like you in the beginning, I have been getting ready to embark on the chicken journey for the past few years and found great help from backyard chickens. I haven't made the chicken leap, but each year I learn more and feel more prepared. The best way I guess would be to jump in and get support from your blog and the website. Hopefully I will win this fabulous coop and have no more reservations about getting started this spring.

  83. I love MPC! We've been raising chickens for 2 years now, and MPC was our resource before we took the plunge in to chickendom. Loved their chicken tool for choosing the right breeds! We're on our third batch of chicks now and are going to be adding a fourth later in the spring. Thanks to all these wonderfully dedicated hobbyists who make taking the plunge that much easier 🙂 Julie julietteberto@hotmail.com

  85. Being a new chick mom, I have scoured My Pet Chicken's site and your site for information. The best part is all the sharing of others who are chick lovers. The coop is beautiful and would be much loved by our 'girls'. Good luck to everyone in the drawing. Susan @ sdoty2@frontier.com

  87. I too recommend the MyPetChicken website often for new flock owners and those considering flock ownership. Great user friendly place for info, great way to help them begin to learn.My son has been wanting to give a couple of chickens their own place away from the rest of the flock to work with them, and breed heritage birds, this would be a great place to do just that. Keep up the blog! Erin- fitnesserin@ourpatriotsdream.com

  88. Our 14 yr old son talked us into getting chicks last year. In all, we got 7 and 6 of them turned out to be roosters! So as of now we have a Rhode Island red hen and rooster. Quite a couple. She is faithful in laying one egg a day after waiting almost 9 months to start laying. I gave up on her and one day in January looked in our coop and there was a pile of 9 eggs! It was hilarious and I was so tickled. My husband and I now love having them and just bought 10 new chicks. A new coop would be fabulous and I suspect we are going to need another. We thought we might have a little village. 🙂 Lisa klg5_2000@yahoo.com

  89. This would make an awesome addition for our pretty girls! My children would love to have a chicken hospital! We are currently in the process of building a coop for our 11 girls as a family!

  90. Hi! We just got chickens a couple weeks ago. They were evidently sick so I have had to learn chicken medicine and get them better already and it worked! I have a temporary tractor for them, not quite big enough for the 4 of them, but they seem to enjoy it. My name is Heather and my email is karpadm76@yahoo.com. Thanks so much for the give-away!!

  92. Lori (elle@ellesniche.com) Very excited about this giveaway. I had wanted to start a backyard flock for about two years and was a little intimidated to do so. I found a "chicken lady" here at the local feed and bought my girls locally. I have to say that raising chickens ha been a very rewarding experience. The ladies have such personalilty and each is different. My children have been eager to help and it is a wonderful way to teach responsibility! Happy Tilly hunting!

  95. I would love to win this coop, I also started with My Pet Chicken last August. It has been the greatest experience owning chickens. raised two boys, who I am proud to say are in the military, and now, thanks to the help of My Pet Chicken, I finally have my girls. michellegentry67@yahoo.com

  98. My Pet Chicken has been my favorite website for go to help and info when I've needed it, new to the backyard chicken community last year, I've had to visit it quite a bit. We have 5 lil bantums that have decided to take residence in our Duck House, they aren't big fans of the our standard chickens so they snuggle with the ducks at night. I would love for them to have their own space and let the ducks get theirs back.

  100. I just moved to a new state and it would be completely awesome to win a new coop for my girls because they are currently living in my horse trailer, Leslie – Shrimp14@aol.com

  105. I grew up around chickens and now that I have a family of my own I am enjoying more chickens. I love the hens I have and the eggs are soooo goood. Its so nice to send one the children out to the hen house and have fresh eggs for breakfast! YUMMY!!! A new coop would be a fabulous addition to our little chicken farm! mellynn4@Yahoo.com

  106. Hi, thanks for the opportunity. Built my shanty coop out of "free" pallets, living on a chicken feed budget. 🙂 Gotta plug some holes, put up a roof (it's a tarp right now) the sun will wear on it I'm sure. This would be a mansion in comparison. Checked out the site, great information. Judi jke11yhome@yahoo.com

  107. Chickens are wonderful. Thank you for sharing information and pictures. I love your blog. I found My Pet Chicken a few months ago and agree with you that educating the public is a great way for them to have a good relationship with their chickens. How to take care of baby chicks all the way to first aid kits you need to know how to take care of your flock. Sparklemommy@yahoo.com.

  110. fivejeagle@bellsouth.net This may sound silly, but I NEVER thought about using a coop like this as a half-way house to protect my babies. And I am in need of something now as the same evening I put a batch of 6wk old chicks in my henhouse, something robbed the duck nest in the same building. Now what do I do? None of my adults were hurt, but the live traps will be out tonight. I'm just hoping the adults will protect my littles ones. If I had that coop in the picture above, I wouldn't have to worry.I am giving it some serious thought! Christie Albertin.

  112. I would so very much love to have this beautiful coop! I'm in the process of researching what I'll need to start our flock and keep them happy and healthy. My son has just discovered that he loves eggs so we're all really excited to make friends with some laying hens!

  120. We placed our order early this year for chicks through My Pet Chicken website. Chickens are our favorite pets and one of our hens won her class at the county fair last year. They're easy to keep and fun to watch and store bought commercial eggs can't compete with fresh eggs. suzanne dot green dot stone at gmail dot com

  121. My name is Janetta and I would LOVE to win this coop! I have had chickens since June 2011 – we started with 5 and now have close to 60 with more incubating! Your blog has been a wonderful resource for information and the chicken-people that I've met online and in-peron have been super friendly, supportive, and fun!! Blessings! Blessings! Blessings!!! j_dobler@msn.com

  122. What a great coop!! Hope I am the lucky winner. Could use this for our 4 Cuckoo Marans hens that I want to keep separate from the other chickens. They are the friendliest girls. My name is Lasandra and my email is: Bizzybirdy@comcast.net. Thank you for the chance get this lovely coop! We LOVE our fuzzy butts!

  128. I love keeping chickens specially when we get to enjoy fresh eggs for breakfast. They are the best. I have some chickens in a small tractor I built. Having a new place to put them in would be so much better and I'm sure the girls would love it. Happy chickens = great layers which = great eggs yum. Hope I get to win, my girls will ty for it <(°) bock bock.

  139. it would be so wonderful to win this coop as i am hoping to start keeping chickens very soon, but want to have everything all set and ready for them first. i really want to teach my son that farm animals are not just faceless commodities, and to take a stand in my own small way, against the factory farms. even if we don't win, i'm glad to have stumbled across this site! 🙂 thanks! shannon

    I was excited to see this giveaway! My family has a small flock of chickens but we live in the middle of town. We would love to have a coop like this where they could have some green grass to be on instead of the straw that they have inside. They are so much fun to watch when they get fresh greens!

  141. I would love to win this coop to give to a friend of ours. He is an architectural draftsman and has been out of work for 3 years. The coop would not only give him some protein to supplement his garden, but the extra eggs would be a source of extra income for him. I have some chicks to give him — he just needs a home for them :)Lou —

  142. What a great giveaway! We've talked about raising chickens for a couple years but the cost of a coop for an inner-ring suburb lot (with hawks, racoons, cats, and dogs in the neighborhood!) has been a little prohibitive. But even if we don't win, I know this coop will become a great home for some wonderful birds! tambyrd@comcast.net

  143. I have been doing all I can to learn about raising chickens for eggs – reading, looking at websites and talking to folks who have chickens of their own. I have psyched myself up and am determined to begin my small flock this summer. Winning the coop would be a great way to begin! Cookcm@stny.rr.com

  145. Wow! I agree with everyone on that this is an AWSOME giveaway!!!! My husband and I are just getting started in hopefully what will be aligetime of owning, raising, and loving chickens!!! :0) my name is Kristen Blakney email: kaydebe@yahoo.com
    Thanks for the chance to win!!!

  146. Chicken Math hit me. I have 86 eggs in the incubator and had already ordered 9 in december to be delivered April 9th. I could definatly use another coop for some of the babies. Audrey Audrey02026@yahoo.com

  147. I love your blog! It is so helpful and very interesting. The coop giveaway is fabulous and a big thank you for introducing me to My Pet Chicken. We have a grand total of 4 hens and they are such a joy! They would love a new coop!

  148. Hi, Autumn Fisher autumnmreslink@hotmail.com
    we have Rhode Island Reds and we love them!!!! We want to give them a better home, one thats meant for them 🙂 When we do finally get them out of our pig sty, how ever you spell it, litterally they're in where pigs used to be years ago, we're going to get pigs and add to our lil farm 🙂 this is an awesome contest!!! Thank you!!!

  149. I have been dreaming for a couple of years about having chickens. My boyfriend and I had decided to wait till we sell our homes and buy one together before we get them, but the economy has made that a very slow coming dream. It could take a couple more years. I dont want to wait a couple more years. I am leaving it up to fate. I told him if I win a coop than its fate we start our family now. If not we wait till either we move or win. Come on fate. Im tired or reading about them, I want to start living with them.

    I have been reading about chickens and lusting for a teensy flock of my own for some time. My hubby has been wanting to get me this very coop!! We hadn't ordered it yet so winning the contest would be a godsend!! Really enjoy reading your blog. Can't wait to get started!! Have a great day and good luck to everyone!!!

  152. I returned to my country roots and realized the joys of raising chickens just yrs ago and I couldn't be happier. My children all have their favorites. I find watching their antics to be very therapeutic and calming when lifes stressors become overwhelming. They are very intelligent, social creatures and I can't imagine life with out them in it. I hope to win this coop for my 15 yr old daughter who just started breeding sebright bantams. She home schools and works part time on a horse ranch.The bantams just stole her heart! thank you for hte contest opportunity. my name is Evy and my email is Evy666vondoom@aol.com

  154. I have a 5 year old little girl , that is full of energy.When she was 3 we got her some chickens to occupy her time. We started out with two trios … Now we have 45 !! An extra coop would help us out so much 🙂 Anthony – Anthonyjenkins029@gmail.com

  155. This is like a dream come true! My husband was going to build our coop until a wind storm dropped two pines on our house:( It's an exciting time and a sad time dealing with baby chicks coming this Friday and now finding help to remove trees. We are very grateful that our children and doggie were inside at the time the trees fell! Mike leaves in ten days to head back out to sea for three weeks and there is a lot to do to get ready for chicks and cleaning up the tree mess! I am going to look real hard to find those emotions on my pet chicken. Love your blog and love chickens!! Michele Greer sheargreer@gmail.com

  156. I am a single mom with six kids my youngest is 5 yrs. She would so love having chickens to care for! We have wanted to have chickens for years and not having a coop has been THE factor that has kept us from it. We have an acre of property on the edge of a very small town. We live next to my mom. She has such a big heart that as stray cats kept being dropped near us she just spayed & neutered them and gave them their shots. We have 10 cats, they are well fed but still need a coop for young chickens to be safe! This is a great give away! Thank you so much for the opportunity! Patti kidsncakes@gmail.com

  159. I am with you on MyPetChicken.com, that site gave me the confidence I needed to know I could handle raising backyard chickens! The cost of a coop has been the final obstacle holding me back, so this beauty would be dream come true. My email is candace.weiss@gmail.com. Either way, thanks for the chance to win!

  166. This would be a great little coop for my 5 year old daughter, she's been pondering for months what kind of banties she wants to show. She does most of our stuff in our big coop if we let her so this would be her own great little piece of chicken heaven.

  167. I love your website and winning this chicken coup will be just the motivation I need to start a campaign against the unfair ordinance again pet chickens in our town. I hope I win. Thanks! Candice mrshaase@gmail.com

  172. I have wanted chickens forever and now that my husband and I just bought a house we can have them Yay! Now we are just needing a coop and the ladies to live in it. I love my pet chicken and feel that it is a great place to find answers and calm fears about owning chickens.

  173. When I found "My Pet Chicken" I almost did a happy dance. I'd decided this was the year I'd start with a few chickens, and the site has answers to all my questions. And then to have this blog as support… even closer to having a dream come true. Right now finances are tough, and I've been looking at various coops to build using recycled materials, your coop would be akin to someone else winning the lottery! I just recently did a funeral for a woman (I'm a pastor) who lost her husband in a tragic, unexpected accident. She shared with me how the chicken flock has helped her with the grieving journey. She stated how both she and her husband took care of the chickens, and the fact that she had to let them out of the coop every morning gave her a reason to get out of bed. Since this is something they both did together it brings a sense of her husband being right there with her. She brings me eggs every once in a while; beautiful blue, green and brown…since hearing her story and reading stories on the internet, I really want to add these cute little guys and gals to my family!

  174. We love My Pet Chicken. Our flock originated from their hatchery. We would love to have an additional and separate coop to house our 4H hens. This giveaway seems to have come as a sign from GOd. It would be a blessing and an answered prayer to win a new coop.

  177. I just ordered my first chicks on Friday from MPC…. so excited! And this is actually the coop I was planning to order for the new girls! I just discovered your blog last week as I'm researching my new adventure, and I have been poring over all your previous posts. Thank you so much for the wonderful giveaway! Ryan (rdawkin@hotmail.com)

  178. I am enjoying this blog. My Pet Chicken was recommended at a Garden club meeting about urban chickens a few years ago and it interested me even though chickens were illegal in my city. Since then I have acquired three beautiful silkies from MyPetChicken, the city has changed their regulations and I have ordered more chicks. I'm hooked on chicks. Judy

  180. That is a lovely coop. My husband and I built one of our own, but this has some wonderful additions. I am so pleased to come across your sight and my chicken raising frinds will be checking it weekely. We are banded together in this new experience and totaly revel in getting to know our chickens. Thanks for the insight.

  183. my name is samantha this would really be amazing to win! we have two roosters right now (no hens) who we adopted from a farm who takes in unwanted/homeless farm animals. this coop would make it possible to get some hens for our boys! sammybabe_20@yahoo.com

  184. Yipee for this give away!! i want to win this for my friend 🙂 she is totally getting into this chicken addiction and desperatly needs a good coop… i would love to supprise her with this!!
    i too love your site… and your girls are adorable 🙂
    rhonda…. rmasterclean@aol.com

  185. Amazing give away!!! We've three happy older hens and have been reading about introducing new hens into this small flock (just two more). This would be a great addition to our situation! mae dot lewis at mac dot com (:>3)

  186. What an amazing coop! We could really use this for my daughters' 4H Cochins that desperatley need their own little coop, since they are now trying to sit. With this Roo and Tangled would have a place all their own to raise their babies. If she were to win this she would be one very happy little girl! She just loves raising chickens and will even be showing at a National Poultry show this month. Thanks again for a great giveaway!

  188. Hi!! I have wanted to get chickens for a few years now but don't have the carpentry skills to build my own and the pre made are expensive. So hopefully I will win this coop and be able to finally get some!!!
    Hannah chamberlain, hannah@sembrar.biz

  192. I love chickens. Wish I had one of these nice coops for them to live in. It looks so much safer than the one they live in now. We have alot of trouble with things getting in our coop. Would love to win this one.

    I have ordered 5 Silkies from My Pet Chicken and they will arrive around April 10th. I love the chicken coop and think that my little chickens would look adorable living in it. Great website and blog!!!

  194. Yes, help! Need another coop to accommodate some new chicks we have coming in early June from My Pet Chicken! This is our second order in three years. We started out with nine three years ago this June, and there are three healthy and happy survivors. Maybe they will take the new coop and our new ones can have the bigger coop?! We shall see. Either way, thanks to My Pet Chicken and our love for our fine ladies, our chickens will be well taken care of and pampered. Thanks so much! Heidi–slowmoe@mwt.net

  198. Everything I know about raising chickens I learnt on MPC and now I know even more after hunting down the Tillys and reading new topics! What a great way to educate. The Clubhouse is my dream coop so my fingers are crossed. Thanks, Vicky vickykummell@me.com

  200. Hi there,

    I got my chicks which are scratching away inside their box in the utility room. Purchased 6, one was a cockerel and one died but have 2 dark brahmas, 2 buff orpingtons (one a fella) and one speckled sussex. They could use a home, especially since we will likely be having our own little chicken offspring. Isn't that just the way it goes? I'll cross my fingers…that's a nice coop!
    pauline…………. pchrt6@aol.com

  202. I need more space. I just got 8 new chicks and need the space. Help me. lol Seriously, thanks for the opportunity to enter. Good Luck to all.

  206. Ordered 25 chicks coming in may … have 6 chicks in brooder about 2 weeks old have 8 eggs ready to hatch on the 9th – the 12th of april and already have 4 Americana (3 hens and a roo) 2 rhode island whites , 2 gold spangled hamburgers, 3 barred rocks, 3 im not sure what they are, and 2 Dominique that free range and 8 silkies that i keep in a run … so winning would be AWESOME!! i need another coop real bad..

  209. Our adventure with Chickens started just a month ago after my husband pestered me for over 3 years to raise chickens. Now I could not be happier to have started raising chickens. I never would have suspected that chickens could have so much personality and be so much fun to have around. I must say the coop that you are giving away is very beautiful. It would be a blessing to have such a beautiful coop in my yard.

  211. Hi all, My name is Rose, email is bakr3@aol.com My granddaughter is the owner of our fantastic little flock of 10 chickens, we are going to add more this summer, she has all different kinds of chicken and her favorite is a little white chicken with a couple of black dots on her back, she raised them from babies and feeds and cleans with me everyday. She gives a dozen eggs away free to a family in need and a dozen to her teachers at school, she is always so proud to be able to help. I am hoping to win the coop for her as she also wants to add more silkies and some polish chickens to her collection. Thank you

  212. Wow! Such an amazing opportunity. I would love to have a coop I could keep in my yard, so the girls could free range. Here's hoping!

  217. Winning this would be amazing this is our first. Time with chicks and like u I didn't think I could do it but we are trying! All this info is going to be awesome as I have had tons of questions and no where to go but a friend for the answers . Please include me in the contest! Coleneandersonphotography@hotmail.com

  225. My daughter (who is in LOVE with chickens) has the job of finding all the tillies.

    Have you seen the book: Tillie Lays An Egg? Your webpage reminded me of that book.

    • Yes, the book is just darling. We discovered it after we launched the blog. I am now even friends with Terry Golson, the author. Talk about a small world 🙂

  232. Just got our chicks 2 weeks ago. My husband and I are so excited to get started. Got lots of great information from mypetchicken.com and now have found this wonderful site. Nice to know there are so manny people willing to share their experience with us. Coop is beautiful! cpellegrini928@gmail.com

  233. hi, we homeschool and as you know that means we need to try out everything and chickens were on the list. also my daughter has a few problems with hormones and we can only give her fresh eggs. I tell you, these girls make me feel great to just watch them walking around and the kids just love them. they even bring them in the house. I would really love to give them as much pleasure as they have brought us. getting them into a nice coop that isn't an old rabbit hutch would be great. we have 3 wonderful girls, one for each child and mommy wants one too, just the right size for this coop giveaway. deborah. deborahleemeyers@yahoo.com

  238. What a beautiful coop!! I'm new to your blog and I love it! I was already a fan of My Pet Chicken, and I'm proud that you are promoting each other!

    Diana …… diana.thomason@mchsi.com

    Thanks for having the contest! (and I learned a lot while looking for the Tillys…)

  239. Thanks for the chance to win! This will save me the weekend project of building a bigger coop. Emily emilyvannort @ hotmail.com

  240. I just talked my mom into allowing me to raise chickens! The only condition was that I had to supply the coop. Being a full time student with a crappy low-paying job it has been a challenge to save for a nice coop. This would be beyond perfect!!! Fingers crossed! Thanks,
    Caitlin Roske
    Roskecv@gmail.com

  241. Oh holy smokes, how awesome would this be? We have a sneaking suspicion our 3-4 chicken sized coop is a little small for our 4 chickens, since two insist on sleeping on the roof at night. *sigh!*

    This coop would be absolutely superb problem solving. Thanks for the opportunity! stephshere@hotmail.com

  243. My first round of chicks should be hatching (from My Pet Chicken!) today. We are so excited.
    Dana dana (at) mattevans (dot) org

  245. Karen/Ohio I live in the city and looking into how I can keep a few chickens. Your blog has been very useful, as well as, My Pet Chicken website. My biggest concern is will keeping chickens, no matter how small a flock, create an odor that my neighbors will complain about? earthheart49@gmail.com

  247. Love Your site as I am just starting my own flock. This coop would be perfect!Cschanz105@aol.com

  251. I am always looking to better my chickens life, including their house! I have 5 older chickens and just got 11 more babies. They are growing up quickly so I need another house for them. It would be so awesome if I won, I have never won a thing in my life! Great contest and good looking coop!

  254. A new coop would be wonderful. We live on a farm and have an animal rescue so money is very tight. We have two small coops which were built with reclaimed materials so they are not very pretty but do the job. I have 12 hens and 3 roosters, most of them were rescued when our nearest neighbor decided not to have chickens any more and tossed them into the forest. It took about a year to catch them all and we lost many of their chicks to predators during that time. Since then we have hatched a few more and now we sell their eggs to support them. A new coop would mean more space and maybe a few more hens.

  256. Hey! My name is Samantha and my e-mail is Scarsofhope420@aim.com! I am a beginning "farmer" so to speak and I have just recently ventured into the world of chickens! I have 10 chickens so far, 2 Bantam Roosters and 8 little ones! 7 hens and 1 little fella! At first it was my husband that wanted the chickens and I was a little skeptical because I didn't know anything about them. I have fallen in LOVE with them! Right now they are in a dog kennel with a netted run that I actually just built myself yesterday. They are growing so fast and need more room to roam! Please help me and my little flock grow and gain this experience together! Thank you so much for this opportunity to be able to enter!

  260. Hi, I love your blog posts and am excited for this contest! I've always wanted a coop from MPC but have had to settle for the one I've already got! hope i win!

  262. We are just getting started with free range chickens, this has been my youngest son's wish for awhile, thanks for a wonderful site and also to "My pet chicken" site for a host of ideas and answers. Thank you for this wonderful opportunity for a free coop! Deb, levenlass@hotmail.com

  264. I have been a chicken keeper for about 2 years now and it is absolutely wonderful ! I would love to win this beautiful coop to use as a second coop for raising more chickens or housing a future rooster perhaps. Thanks for your great blog and this fantastic opportunity !
    Karen Doll Mamabirdy55@aol.com

  265. A new coop would be a great reason to add some new breeds to the flock!

  267. This coop would be perfect for my little Baby peeps–I have a very small group–and they are in need of a safe and secure small habitat. Thank you.

  269. I have some new baby peeps and I need a nice enclosure to put them in to keep them safe from predators. This would be perfect. Thank you.

  271. Would love to put my little baby peeps in this secure and attractive coop. I will rest assured that they are safe and sound in this enclosure.

  273. We just started with chickens I got 3 day old chickens on Feb 21st so they are just now getting to go outside to there area and enjoy the outdoors. I love doing this but would love the chicken coop to finish my chicken area off. I want to get 3 more soon and keep on going. So the chicken coop would come in handy and have a great home with a person that loves chickens and would use it everyday and love it. So please consider me for this beautiful chicken coop we could sure use and enjoy it. pollywells@comcast.net

  275. Well, I never win anything, but since it's my birthday and we're ordering our chicks from My Pet Chicken next week, I figured we'd need a coop! So, here's my comment, on this post, hoping to win.

  276. I have been playing with the idea of raising my own backyard flock for a long time now, but I was scared that I would not be knowledgable enough and that my birds would suffer due to my inexperience. I have loved all animals since I was a very young child and the though of harming any just kills me. My pet chicken has helped to answer so many of my questions and finally gave me the confidence to try this out. I have been doing hour after hour of research the past two weeks, often staying up past 5am because I want to be as knowledgable as I can possibly be. I will finally be going to the local feed store to pick up my first chicks this Wednesday!!! I am still very nervous both I know that there are many chicken lovers that will answer my questions and help me along the way. This is an awesome contest and whoever ends up winning this wonderful coop is going to have some very happy chickens. 🙂
    My name is Wan-Chi w.punga@hotmail.com

  280. I would love this chicken coop. This is my first time raising chickens and I tell you it's been so exciting who knew raising chickens could bring so much joy into our lives. Even my 5 year old grand daughter is loving it and learning how to take care of chickens. We have a old green house that we are using as a temporary coop and would love to have this coop. I have 3 chickens right now that are about 5 weeks old and we just started keeping them outside in the green house and they love it. I am purchasing 4 more baby chicks it is just so enlightening to see these chicks grow up and be part of the process. So please consider me for this beautiful coop it would make my chickens very happy and there owner would love it..

  281. Hi. This is awesome. We have a coop for our big beautiful family as of right now. We our the proud owners of 6 Americaunas, 2 Buff Orpingtons, 2 Speckled Wynedottes, 2 very sweet Red Sexlinks, 4 Dark Brahmas, 3 Light Brahmas, 2 Buff Brahmas, and now we have received our newest family members. My 13 year old daughter just got her Silkie Bantam babies to raise and possibly show. This coop would be perfect for her new babies when they get bigger. Thank you very much for the opportunity. lauriekeyser@gmail.com

  283. This would be an amazing coop to have. It's so practical and cute. They thought of everything when they designed it. I would love to replace my pallet coop with this one. I hope I win!
    Martha tommygrl1972@yahoo.com

  284. What a wonderful coop. Since moving to a new state I have not been able to set up a home for some chickens. Leaving my little flock of 4 when I moved was the hardest thing to do. I found them a good and safe home, but miss them terribly. (Monroe, Stella, Penny and Princess) Having a coop would be a perfect way to convince my husband that we could have chickens in our suburban area.

  285. I was just about to start building a coop with pallets. I think I'll wait a couple of weeks. I would love to see my future chickens live in this palace! Keeping fingers and chicken feet crossed!

  286. (Jennifer g_fer25@yahoo.com)I was so excited when I read about this giveaway. While reading your blog I felt like I was the one saying all these things. I grew up with chickens, but really my dad did all the work, I just helped and did what he told me. I am getting ready to get my own chickens now and I've been reading, researching, & asking everyone I know (or run into at the feed stores) about chickens. I am planning to get 4 Dominiques. I remember driving half a day with my dad to go pick up chickens & when we got there it was a box of the prettiest little black bitties I've ever seen. The lady told me they were Dominiquers and as they grew they just got prettier. I only resently found out that they are the oldest American chicken, but they are also on the watch list for endangered species. I can only hope my little flock will win this wonderful coop so we can do our part to bring this wonderful breed back to where it should be. Fingers crossed, hope to receive a winner email.

  287. Love my little chickens! And my daughter would love the coop for the silkies that she plans on getting. Thanks for a great blog.

    Katherine (katherinescottage@yahoo.com)

  289. I just started raising chickens last year with a friend's cast offs and love finding the eggs everyday. Most off the eggs are given to senior citizens and an unemployed friend. I'm hoping to get more hens soon and this coop would be wonderful to have.

    Lindsay lr92555@aol.com

  290. good grief! The chances of winning that beautiful coop are as high has the last lottery! I did want you to know that your story inspired me to go for it. I have want to for quite a while and you're right. If it doesn't work, I have neighbors who would take the chickens and would love the coop! Thanks for the push!

  294. I hope I win this new chicken coop! I always wanted new chicks with a broody hen before, but I don't have much room in my chicken coop. So I hope I win! Etem, (tim.selmani@gmail.com)

  295. We just got our first chickens and we are so excited! We have 8 chicks, and a duck! We just had to move them into our barn b/c they were outgrowing their home in our kitchen:) We would love this beautiful coop to keep any little chicks we get as a result of our originals! Joni jeonorton@gmail.com

  301. We are hoping to get started with our chickens – just found out that our milk lady – she is also our egg lady is moving out of state. Bummer…but that makes it no longer just wishing, now we have to get on the ball to get started. This beautiful Coop would make it all possible. Love your blog – it's an inspiration to me. Julie ~ jacobhouse@kanokla.net

  307. Being a girl who, when growing up in a ranch house on 1/4 acre of land, was told year after year that having a pony and a lamb and some chickens was "out of the question," I now long to fulfill my dream of having a few "girls" out back as beloved pets who can peck around my lawns and basque in the sun of my big huge formal herb garden. This little coop would fit so perfectly inside their manicured boxwood walls. Keeping my fingers crossed but congrats to whoever the lucky winner is! Thank you Tilly's Nest and thank you My Pet Chicken for this terrific opportunity. Nancy Cross, Nancyc@hp.com

  312. With Henrietta the hen-pecked hen recuperating in my basement, I could really use this beautiful coop. Henrietta and my other 4 Austrolorps from MyPetChicken are still going strong and I've even gotten some friends to order from there. Their chicks arrive in early May.

    Thanks for the giveaway! Sherry at crankypuppy at gmail dot com.

  315. Mrs.Thomas (joeyandtasha@msn.com) My family is in the beginning stages og planning our chicken coop.

  316. Hi i am 13 years old and my friend and I have been raising chickens for 2 years now. We cant afford a new coop and have our chickens in a makeshift run. We don't feel safe because we have had many encounters with predators, and want to have a safe environment for our chickens. Please consider me i really love the clubhouse and this is an amazing opportunity! Thank you so much! My email address is jbwilson98@gmail.com

  318. Mom has raised chickens for years and now I want to start my own flock, I want a few red stars, a few Rhode Island reds and who knows what else I may end up with. A coop would be nice to have so I can start..

  322. I would love to win this coop. I have already purchased a coop and chicks from My Pet Chicken, but would love to have another coop so they have lots of room when they have to be confined. We live in fox country, so my chickens will have to be confined at night and when I am away. This is my first time as a keeper of chickens, and I am so glad to have found this blog and MPC. I know I will have friends to turn to if I have questions.

  338. Years ago I had a flock of 30+ layers and supplied four families with all the eggs they needed. Now I would love to have a couple of chickens to supply just one family, and this coop looks to be the perfect size.

  349. What a great idea! I became addicted to chickens a few years back, but had to get rid of the entire flock so we could move across the country, it was a very sad day. I would LOVE to get a flock together again now that we've finally settled down again. Cassie – cassiewakefield@hotmail.com

  350. I have enjoyed your Blog and found you through My Pet Chickens what a great site too. My birthday is April 13 so this would be a great gift and help get me started in rasing chickens.Thank you for all you share. donna.stone51@verizon.net (trying this again, did it this morning but didn't see my post. sorry if you get it twice.)

  353. What a wonderful giveaway! My daughters preschool class just hatched baby chicks and they need loving homes for these bundles of cuteness. We have both bonded with 3 of the most precious chicks I have ever met. And this would be perfect for when they get to move into the outside world and out of our mudroom. Thank you so much for the chance to win! Brandi- mackieb22@yahoo.com

  360. What a great idea! Finally two sites have come together to enhance the owning of chickens experience. My son (age 6) and I have been hatching our own out for a few years now. I was extremely excited his first grade teacher invited us to hatch them out in school this year. The teacher had done packets with how big they were every 6 days or so. It was great!! The kids expressions when they started hatching was priceless!

Thanks so much for this give away, it will truly make someone and their sweet hens happy! ~(:>)=

Please consider me for the chicken coop giveaway and if I don't win I would love to get/buy building plans for this coop…it is exactly what I want for my chickens. Thanks Teresa taayers2@gmail.com

  376. We would love a new coop to use as a nursery or hospital, or even a place to keep the group we have now while we re-build our existing coop. Since May of last year we went from almost 20 hens, 20 babies, 4 ducks and 1 rooster to 11 hens. Thanks to the local racoons. We now make sure that all of them are locked up at night, but the coons are slowly destroying our homemade coop. We would love to be able to put the girls in someplace safe while we fortify their existing home. Then we would have a great place to put the new babies we get once out of the brooder. Good luck to everyone.

  377. It would awesome if i won i have an exotic male pheasent and some chicks in the brooder, so if i won i would let the chicks have the coop until they were big enough to be with the pheasent !!!!! :)Bradyn, petguy@cableone.net

  378. Thank you for the wonderful information on chickens. Although it took me years to convince my husband to let me get chickens I think he enjoys them as much as I do. This would make a great coop for our new chicks…or I could get more!

  394. Ohhhhh would my chickens LOVE it!!! Right now the chickens I purchased from MPC three years ago are having to roost on my horse stalls. Needless to say my horses are not happy with all that early morning crowing … in fact I think they would like the coop even more than the chickens would! 🙂

    Thank you!! Jill Kvasager

  407. Wow i see these coops all the time, they are so cool. They are so expensive though. My family and i have a small farm in NW Oklahoma we just got a new batch of chicks and my two little ones have claimed a chick a peice. This would be great for them to have. There own little coop for there babies! Chicks are spoilt already. They. See you and come right to you. Oh this is a good idea! I hope i win, this my kids would flip! I wish everyone good luck and God Bless.

  409. I have four baby girls coming from My Pet Chicken in the next couple of days. After inhaling the vast amount of information available on My Pet Chicken, I am confident and ready to be a new "mommy". Although I have accommodations ready for my new family members, it is not nearly as nice as the coop being offered!

  415. My go-to place for chicken information also is My Pet Chicken. I have ordered from them several times and I plan to again in the future. The coop is beautiful and even tho I have more than a few chickens now, it would make a wonderful transition coop for the little ones after they outgrow the brooder.

    What a great contest, I could really use a chicken coop. I have 9 laying hens and bought 10 barred rock chicks. I get 6-7 brown eggs a day. My current coop is a real el cheapo. Its mad of plastic coated cardboard and we paid over $300 for it. My chickens spent the winter in the pole barn, but now that its spring they are staying in el cheapo.

  419. My girls would just love this coop, They have moved into the wood shead after watching one of thier sister fall pray to the neighborhood fox and will not come out. I do not blame them it was heart breaking. Cheryl~ cfigs2001@yahoo.com

  420. I love your blog! It's fun and friendly to read and very informative! I also love My Pet Chicken- those folks are wonderful! We have ordered twice from them now, to begin and then to add to our precious flock. I have talked with them on several occasions to help answer questions and curtail problems. You folks are my support system! I love my flock and couldn't do it without you guys! I have referred these two sites to many friends interested in having their own chickens.
    What a great give-a-way! The coop would be a wonderful addition to help our flocks needs. Thanks for all you do, Patty (misspatty4@yahoo.com)

  422. Hi, I would love to be able to have a new coop, great giveaway! liz9910@yahoo.com also, I'm about to order chicks from MPC and can't find where you would enter the offer code, thank you.

  423. We would love to win this coop! My daughter is raising and showing Cochins in 4H, and we need a new coop for her Buff Cohin breeding pair. Our email is mvillines@att.net . Thanks so much for such a great giveaway, and for a wonderful site.

  427. I cannot tell you how thrilled I would be to win this beautiful coop! Building completely from scratch just seems too daunting, but this one looks beautiful, sturdy, and just the right size for us! -Carrie celsass1@yahoo.com

  429. I have also found My Pet Chicken to be helpful in starting to raise my own chickens. I have gotten even more information from Tilly's which I found from My Pet Chicken. We have 7 chickens that have been fun and educational for my family. We would like to expand our flock and this coop would be helpful. Denice sahm_4@yahoo.com

  430. I love My Pet Chicken! They are what lead me to my love of backyard birds. I have had chickens before but I am starting again with 5 chicks this time and a nice double lot for the ladies to run around on!

  433. WOuld so so so so so love to have this, times are tough & i want fresh eggs from my backyard! This coop would be such a blessing as we're adding some hens to our family in a few weeks here. ~Lauren haleylauren26@yahoo.com~

  440. I'm a first timer on this site. I found my way from the My Pet Chicken site. This is my new favorite site. I just bought some new "ladies" chickens they should be coming at the end of April, only to replace so of my older ladies who are getting up in the years. I also started a new hobby with my dad,Bees.We just shook our first set of bees,now a proud owners of 8,000 bees and a Queen.We are still in bee school at the Worcester County Bee Club,enjoying every min.I also have two horses and a Newfoundland who thinks she is a coach potato. So my yard is very busy but would not have it an other way. Look forward to talking to more on this site.

  443. Wow, I guess lots of people want a free coop! 450+!! My Pet Chicken was also the source of my first chickens!! they are great! This would let me expand my chicken flock and order more chickens! Melissa ~ mel (at) ccchfa.org

  445. I've just found this site and love it already! I also had a paralyzed chicken and can identify with Lucy. I would love this coop for my "special needs" hens which are living in my house and only going outside when there's someone to supervise them. I look forward to visiting this site often.

  447. Hello – Thank you for generously giving a coop away to some lucky person. I just purchased 4 baby silky chic's and have yet to buy a coop for them. I would love to have a chance at winning the coop you have in your give away. Kathy – kanklowitz@gmail.com

  448. What a great coop! I have a few peeps but they have an old iceshack in much need of repair. I however get by with the coop I have. Money is tight, but with the love I have and give my peeps they are very happy! I love the "hug a chicken day" idea!

I hope to have a run of good luck to win this it is much needed for I would like to get some chicks. thank you for allowing me thew chance to win! moonsunrlb@yahoo.com RACKEL&KARLEIGH of MAINE

  453. I would LOVE to win this coop..it's a very beautiful coop n my neighbors will be envy of me if i won this for my chickens ~kbricker237@wildblue.net thank you!!!

  455. My trio of hens are pecking at the back window as I write this, waiting for a treat before going into their coop for the evening.
    Thanks for the giveaway!
    I believe MPC is everyone's favorite.

  456. Wow what a great looking coop! I have some new chicks coming very soon need a place to keep them until they are big enough to join the older flock. Great website/blog. Love it all.

    Linda Thurston

  457. What a wonderful giveaway! My husband and I got our first backyard chickens in 2009 and get so much enjoyment from our small flock. And, My Pet Chicken has been a wonderful resource for us as well; it's where we head first with our chicken questions. Thank you so much for the opportunity to win — this coop would be perfect for our newest additions; 6 darling little Bantam Showgirls! — Terri – t.ann.webb@gmail.com

  459. I have been raising chickens for the last few years. Every year I add a few more. This would me a great addition to my existing coop for newbies or when some of the girls need some down time from the roosters.

  463. This coop is amazing and is just perfect! My wife would absolutely love this for her chic-kids. Steve~polaris54313@gmail.com

  464. So, that only took a few hours ~(:>3)= but I found all 5! While the odds are stacking against me as all the other comments are pouring in, I persisted because I am so grateful for any window of opportunity when so many doors have been closed. Last year my daughter Madeline was diagnosed with high functioning autism, more specifically called Aspergers. If you do not know what that is, perhaps you have heard of Temple Grandin? She is a doctor of animal science who shares the same syndrome as my daughter, and funny enough, animals are Madelines "narrowed interest" as well. Madeline calls herself a "Birder" and keeps a "birding" notebook where she pasts photos of birds and writes notes about them. I learn things I never knew about birds from my 8yr old! Many consider her syndrome a disability but her doctor says shes a natural born specialist. Madeline's birthday is April 15th and she will be 9yrs, so it would be *amazingly good timing* if we would be so fortunate to win that chicken coop on the 16th! We have a large lot suitable for chickens and are allowed up to 6. We also believe the way of the future is "Urban Homesteading" and its not complete without chickens. For now we have a chicken lady who we visit and get fresh eggs from and NOTHING compares to a fresh "home grown" egg 🙂 All we are missing is a coop for everything else to fall into place so I guess if its meant to be it will be, we will just have to wait and see! – Alissa at alissa.askins@gmail.com – Thanks for your consideration

  465. Wow, this looks like such a great coop for our new flock o' chicks! We are just starting…only had chicks for 1 week. We lost 2 out of the 8, but I guess that happens. My hubby is building a coop to look similar to yours, but another one would be great and we could get some more chicks. Love the coop! -amy.nurseratchet@gmail.com

  467. I am very excited to receive my first order of chicks next week! I value all the information sources provided by other chicken keepers. As a vegetarian and in an attempt to move toward vegan, I have decided to raise chicks. Thanks for all the information and the contest! Hoping my chicks from My Pet Chicken arrive safely next week! Leanne lmsee1@yahoo.com

  470. Adrie, adried@yahoo.com I recently moved into a new house (Yay!!) and one of my goals is to have a couple of hens to keep me company and supply eggs for my ever increasing addiction. :)) I would love to own a coop like this.

  471. Audri ~ audri_crews@yahoo.com
    I would love to win it…. give the older chicks a little more room! Thanks Tilly's Nest for giving it away! Now i just have to find all the little chickens…… ~(:>3)= (<<<cute btw!)

  472. I am amazed that so many people have a chicken story! I saw nothing but smiles and request for eggs when I asked my neighbors if they would mind if I built a coop.
    I am very excited to share my chicken experiences with my 5 year old son, and I look forward to reading more about your family experiences with Ms. Tilly and the rest of the flock on this site/blog.
    Thank you for the handy tips and the play by play of the chicken world, all of which bring my family closer together. Thank You SOOOO Much!

  477. That is such an amazing looking coop! For some reason I've always had a fascination with farm animals and think chickens are just too cute. Fingers crossed, I can finally get a real coop! Erin

  478. What an absolutely WONDERFUL giveaway!!! I have been pricing chicken coops at Agway for about a year now and just couldn't afford one. That didn't stop me from purchasing my six lovely Silkie Bantams last week, along with a low cost coop. I need to add smaller wire and paint it with weather guard, so there is still work to be done. This coop be perfect ~ I Love It!! Thank you for offering this giveaway 😀 I'll keep my fingers crossed. Pam – pamelaannseitz@yahoo.com

  479. I have three hens at home and two new chicks coming in a couple of weeks. My dad built me a wonderful coop which I love, but I would love to win this one for my aunt, who I have talked into taking the backyard chicken plunge. She and I ordered our chicks together and she is scrambling to get a coop together. Thanks for the chance to win! – Anna: annaw_4@hotmail.com

  480. I am excited to receive my first chick order next week from My Pet Chicken! I am a vegetarian looking to move toward vegan which is why I decided to raise chicks. I value all the information put forth by all of the experienced chicken keepers! Thank you for the help provided by blogs and sites such as yours!

  481. You've got great links to resoureces for taking care of small flocks. I've already visited Treats for Chickens and greenchickencoop.com. Thanks for all of the great information and having the contest for the new coop. pcasas71@hotmail.com

  482. Charlene Charkbuvel@verizon.net Our coop is "handcrafted" 🙂 and while the kids are very proud of their hard work, an addition of four new hens has left them a little cramped at night. They are aspiring to raise chicks later this spring/summer, and I have told them they have to build a new broody coop first. They haven't started. 😉 Would love to surprise them!! And Ms. Puff, Little Fluff, Blue, Turkey Lurkey, Delaware, Pin Yin, and Big Mamma thank you for your entertaining and informative blog!

  483. We LOVE this site! Almost as much as we love our chickens! We have found so many tips, and helpful how too's, my kids love the pictures and i love the recipes and reading all the experiences! Even if i have had a rotten day at work scrolling through the site always puts me in a great mood! Keep up the wonderful work, it is nice to share the love of chickens with so many other people! Hanging with our peeps! samantha foreverhaven@aol.com

  487. You have given me the courage and confidence to pursue my dream of raising backyard chickens. Your blog and My Pet Chicken have opened up a world of knowledge and joy for me. I have a small flock of birds but am unable to obtain a coop for them.

    In order to keep them safe from predators, every night I carry them in the house one by one and have them sleep in a makeshift playpen until morning. Then I carry them back outside.

    I am on a fixed income and there isn't the possibility of obtaining a coop any time soon. I would be so appreciative to have my birds housed in comfort outside in a comfortable and safe coop–and I would sleep well every night knowing that they are safely contained.

    Thank you so much. Sue ~ suefischer@hotmail.com

  488. What a great chicken coop! I have my first baby chick, raising it for my little granddaughter, and would love to add a couple of more if I win it! Would love to win this coop! Just what we need. Tammy. jackandtammy@cox.net

  499. I love the chicken blog world! I too have dreamed of backyard chickens for a few years and this is the year I've taken the plunge! Les, from My Pet Chicken, was the best helper as I found their website on-line randomly and called them to learn more. I was hooked after a 30 minute conversation with Les 🙂 I have 3 boys under 8 and we are so excited to get our girls in a couple weeks…3 Rhode island reds, 2 white silkies, and 2 black silkies arriving in Iowa soon! Yeah! This coop would be awesome for our new additions and make my hubs a happy man as he gets out of a little building for me. Great contest! Congrats to whoever wins! Hopefully the Hansen family… 😉 Jess & my house full of chicken loving boys- jesshansen21@gmail.com

  500. This coop looks AMAZING! I have had chickens for a while now and have never raised any from chicks I would love to!!! I think this would be great for when i'm ready to move them all outside/ would be a great chicken hostpital since I don't always have room in my run anyway this would be totally AWESOME!!!

  508. I had chickens years and years ago and finally have them again! I had to do something to fill the "empty nest" since my daughter ran off to college. I would love to win this coop! Still looking for those emoticons. – Deb – synergyrenewed at gmail dot com

  518. I REALLY need to win this coop. I have 2 Sizzles that are living in my house right now because I do not have a coop yet for them. I rescued them from less than ideal conditions and they need to be in a coop ASAP!! I hope I win!! treatsandtreasures@rocketmail.com

  521. What an awesome coop. We have a few chickens and are looking at expanding as my 11 year old boy is picking up customers to sell farm fresh eggs. 3 more chickens and a coop would be a boost to help him in picking up more business and to house more chickens.

  523. We could really use this! Just got our first chicks last weekend. 🙂

  549. Oh Yes I would love to win this. My husband just had another heart attack and now has 11 stints in his heart. I really need another coop for my girls but he is unable to build it for me nor do we now have the money. It would look so cute sitting in the yard. Right now we have a total of 46 chickens. 11 laying hens now and get an average of 6 to 8 eggs a day. I have a 12 year old son that has aspergers and this has been the best thing we have ever done is to get chickens (oh and 2 ducks) for him to see and touch and gather up the eggs. He loves to feed them… Its been great… We would love to have this coop and really, really, really could use this coop…. Thanks for all your wonderful post and infomation you give to us first time chicken farmers.. Gina Farley Cromer at cromer's farm & coop… in Lugoff, SC cromerteapots@aol.com

  555. What an AWESOME coop!!! I had a bunch of chickens a few years ago and a weasel got into the coop and killed everyone of them but one. I went out and bought some chicks yesterday so now I HAVE to rebuild the coop so it is a lot more safe for my girls. This is a great design!!! Cheryl ~ OH ~ gobigred@wcoil.com

  557. OMGosh- the odds seem steep, but we could use the coop (: Just finally getting around to having chickens at our farm. My Grampa showed and bred chickens and sold eggs in NH 1920-1960 and "invented" Sargents Barred Rocks. Its in my blood and I can't wait. Been eating fresh eggs and chicken for a few years now thanks to area friends, but really want to see 'em out there busily scratching and enjoying the happy farm life-pick me!!! Even if you don't, we'll still enjoy and learn from your great blog. Thank You and Happy Spring

    Thank you.

  586. Who would have thought a motorcycle riding, surfing, grandfather would fall in love with the 12 baby chicks he purchased last April. I wish I had known years ago how much fun these chickens are. They are a big part of my life and everyday routine, the grand kids love them, and the fresh free range eggs are the best I've ever had.

  587. Hi! My name is Susan and me and my family live in Scottsdale, Arizona. We have 9 hens and we LOVE our chickens, and we LOVE "My Pet Chicken"!! What a beautiful coop you all are giving away. Who ever wins this coop,their chickens will be VERY happy! 🙂 But I hope it's us! susanskow@hotmail.com

  588. Brooke liveloudorstayquiet@Hotmail.com I WOULD LOVE THIS COOP!! Im 17 and got chickens a year ago and loved them since. They're free ranged because I sell eggs at my dads gas station. My parents always told me I couldn't have chickens, but they were gone one weekend and I build an outdoor pen and bought my first four 🙂 now I have 11. This pen would help me figure which one of my hens lay the best, and would be good for my chicks! Thanks!

  594. Hi, what a wonderful coop. Thank you MPC and you all at Tilly's Nest for making this coop available. I am Liz Davis, my e-mail address is: silkmiss@msn.com. We currently live with 14 hens who are spoiled rotten, and they know it!

  596. Wow; you had to earn the ability to enter this contest! But after much searching I finally found all five Tilly's! And I have to say, though my main purpose was to find the Tillys, I ended up reading so many of the articles. So, YEAH! Hopefully I win, I've love to be able to move out hens off of there dirt yard and onto green grass! Fingers Crossed!
    gcwpapillon@gmail.com

  600. Phew, it took me a few days but I finally made it through all the pages and found all 5 chickens and got their locations copied and pasted. Now let's just hope my computer doesn't crash if I get picked, lol. Our new family members would have a ball in this coop, thanks for the awesome giveaway!

Since I have had them I have leand so much from Tilly's Nest, My Pet Chicken, Fresh Eggs Daily, and so many more great sites. I have become an obsessed chicken owner! I love and enjoy them so much. Im dying to get some new breeds to add to my flock but the coop I have now is not big enough for anymore.I have a great back yard with a lot of land for the chickens to roam on. All thats missing is a new coop. Winning this would mean the world to me so I can enjoy even more chicken! Thanks so much!!! Meeghan32@gmail.com

  611. This would be so awesome!! I LOVE my chickie babies!! They would love a new home, or I could use it for the new ones I am ordering this year. I hope I have to deal with that decision! Diane, dianebonasso@yahoo.com

  614. Who knew a motorcycle riding, surfing, grandfather would fall in love with the 12 chicks he purchased last April. They are a big and important part of my life today and I spend as much time enjoying them as I can each day. They free range on my 2 acres and produce the best tasting and healthiest eggs you could ask for. My grand kids love to come over and see the girls and have fun collecting the eggs and just being with them and following them around the property. I only wish I'd did this 30 years ago. : )

  615. I would love to win this coop! I just ordered chicks online before and they will be arriving in May!

  619. Hi! The chicks that I ordered from My Pet Chicken just arrived and I'm having so much fun caring for them. I love the website and have already gone back to it several times for advice. My chicks are named Buttercup, Maydell, Poupee, Josephine and EmmyLou. I would love to win the coop. My name is Donna and you can let me know if I won at donnameaux@aol.com.

  620. Beautiful coop! My neighbor and I are just getting started and this would be perfect for us. tissytano(at)optonline.net

  622. I just found your site through My Pet Chickens and I would be thrilled to win this GORGEOUS coop!! I love Silkies too but had to place my sweet pets in a new home when I left California and moved into an apartment in Sarasota Florida. I now own a home with a lovely backyard and really want to find some Silkie hens … and what a home that coop would make!! I did educational outreach with my Silkies when I lived in California and do the same for for a local bird club here. My Silkies were the perfect education birds and I would love to have some sweet Silkies again … they are the best!! Knock on wood, winning this coop would be heaven sent.

  624. The Coop is beautiful and we could definitely use it right now as we just had a tragedy at our house and our remaining 4 of 15 chickens are living in our sun room in 2 crates as there pen/part of our barn has been destroyed by possible vandals. 11 of our flock died sensely Monday evening because someone apparently decided they wanted to have some fun and started a fire where we had a tunnel from an inside pen to an outside pen. The chickens had been running around outside and were starting to go to bed when this started thus closing their 1 route of escape. The fire inspector said he figured smoke inhalation or the heat would have killed them. 3 of the new 7 that we got from My Pet Chicken in Oct survived becuase they are allways the last to go inside. We have one little one from our previous flock who suvived as well but she must have run through the fire as her wings and tail feathers are melted and her feathers are singded. Her name is Isabella but I think I am going to change it to Phoneix. She is doing well 4 days ago it happen and she laid an egg today. Unbelieveable their resilency!!My Barred Plymouth Rock Jasmine has been putting her wing over Isabella at night when they sleep to comfort her. I love chickens. I will be ordering more to replace my lost group when we get our new house built. Until then a small coop would be fabulous!!
