Description
Chicubes Plastic Chicken House for 6 Hens in Green. This chicken coop is perfect for up to 6 hens. Our chicken houses are designed for ease of use and durability as well as comfort for your hens. This six hen house is perfect for a small urban garden or for an allotment or for a bigger garden. The house can be easily moved and has a number of different sized runs which you can choose from. You do not need a lot of space to keep hens, so if you are thinking of keeping up to six or already have some chickens, this chicken house will be perfect for them. This sized house is also perfect if you want to start with a few hens but think you may want to increase the number you have later on.
Dimensions 1220mm x 600mm x 720mm, (4ft x 2ft x 2ft 4″)
Designed for up to 6 standard sized hens or 8 banthams.
Made from composite panels which are fully insulated. A plastic outer layer sandwhiches polystyrene to make the panels which are then capped with aluminium to create a secure and robust structure. These panels are very easy to clean, wipe down and disinfect allowing you to maintain an hygenic hen house with the minimum of effort. No need to worry about mite infestation, which can become an on going battle with traditional wooden chicken housing.
All runs are made from strong galvenised welded wire mesh. All runs also have fox proof skirts around the edge, these can then also be pegged into the ground for added security to stop foxes from digging under the run. Each skirt is 200mm (8 inches). Each run has a chicken pop-hole positioned at the end of the run opposite the door to the Chicube, so you can let your hens out into the garden if you want to. However, the position of the pop-hole can be positioned anywhere upon your request.
All runs also have access via a hinged flap in the roof to allow easy cleaning and access to the inside of the run. All runs can be easily attached and detached from the house.
Standard available run dimensions
4ft x 6ft x 2ft 2″ tall, (1220mm x 1830mm x 660mm tall)

Each Chicube comes with 2 wooden nesting boxes and 2 removable wooden perches. You can also buy spare perches and nesting boxes if you require them.
Nigel Watson –
We have had one of these for 11 years. Apart from replacing the wooden bars inside and extending the run it is spot on. It comes apart for a full clean, no risk or red mite. Secure and warm in the depths of winter. My only suggestion would be covering the run with chicken wire if there are stoats around, as they can get through the weld mesh. However, we are in the depths of the countryside. In all, the best coop and well worth investing in.
