Round-Top Chicken Loft­™

Key Design Concepts for the Round-Top Chicken Loft Coop™ :

We wanted to create a low $3,000's  dollar high quality walk in style coop that could hold at least 10 hens and it turned out that an A-Frame design did the trick. After 400+ hours of 3D CAD design and prototyping, new innovate CNC machining techniques and sub-assemblies to reduce assembly time... we were happy 🙂 The main idea of these coops is to be able to house 10 hens for the best bird/dollar price, ship wisely, and assemble more easily.

We designed the Round-Top Chicken Loft™ to be easily assembled by two people of average skill in about 2-3 hours. All needed tools and fasteners are included in the box with a set of current instructions. You provide a cordless drill and some elbow grease. A small level is handy but not required.

A note about gravity style feeders…

Our new EZ-Fill Feeder² is improved and will easily hold a long weekends worth of food. Gravity feeders are a class of feeders that, as the name implies, rely on gravity to dispense feed. Chickens eat, and more falls down. ANY gravity feeder can clog, although our new EZ-Fill Feeders² fight this tendency.

In high humidity areas, with certain feeds, during certain seasons of the year, our feeders can clog too. If a feeder did clog, shaking the feeder will almost all the time dislodge the food. Feed absorbs moisture. Some feeds contain anti-clumping agents to keep them from absorbing moisture during manufacturing and those feeds do best.

Many times, more expensive organic feeds do not have anti clumping agents in them, and are in fact, more susceptible to clogging.Experiment with different feeds that are available in your area to discover what’s best. But you will no doubt, sooner or later, need to shake tap or poke at the feed to dislodge it.

Customers report feed stored in original paper feed bags clogs less. At least with our Easy-Fill Feeders, you’re doing it from outside the coop 🙂
