Orpington Lodge Hen House – Chicken Coop for 6 Chickens
Is this the right coop for 6 chickens? There are factors to consider like:
What chicken breeds are you getting
Are you able to let them free-range?
We recommend taking a look at the dimensions below, remembering your girls are only going to be in the hen house to roost at night and lay their eggs. It’s also good to remember the chickens share nesting boxes and stand side by side on the roosting rods. This chicken coop for 6 hens does not include a Run in case you want to expand your setup or in case you already have a run extension.
Features:
Easy to clean: Includes pull-out tray to catch their waste for easy cleaning and access doors under the coop
Easy Access: Doors under each nesting box for easy access to the space under the hen house.
Quality Construction: supporting braces between run panels, Acrylic sliding window, Fold down and LOCKING window covers! VERY SOLID with support under the nesting box, diagonal wood supports on all panels and tongue and groove joints.
Quality Components: heavy gauge hardware, .5” wire mesh, Ajustlock bolt latches for easy locking in cold weather.
Weatherproof: Plastic flashing to keep water out of the Nesting Boxes and hard plastic lining under all roof panels.
The Orpington Lodge Hen House is solid! You can take comfort in knowing that your hens are safe from harmful predators in this strong, high-quality, built backyard chicken coop. Tongue and groove construction, quality hardware, designed by a family that has backyard chickens. Easy to clean and maintain with a sliding plastic poop tray (metal over time runs with the strength of chicken poop), a sliding door to secure your hens at night, large nesting boxes with easy access, additional roosting rods, etc. This chicken coop for 6 hens is being sold separately in case you want to expand your setup or in case you already have a run extension.
Given that your chicken coop kit for 6 chickens will be exposed to the elements around the clock, we highly recommend staining, lacquering, or painting it. The initial stain serves as a base coat and does not provide long-term protection from the weather. During transit, parts might get dinged or scratched, so you might need to touch up the coop before applying stain or paint. After setting it up, we suggest anchoring it down, which can be as simple as placing a stake on each side of the hen house and run area.
Easy Assembly Instructions (Note we have since the video was made added an additional door below each hen house for ease of cleaning)
Dimensions:
28.5”long x 55″wide x 57.5″tall.
Plenty of Interior space:
54” x 28” interior floor space
4 Nesting Boxes
2 Lower interior roosting bars
1 Raised interior roosting bars
15” clearance under the hend house
A few additional points to consider:
Our coop has additional vents providing excellent airflow in the hen house.
Each panel has four additional diagonal wooden support pieces
Prop open LOCKING side vent windows (most coops sold online have sliding windows)
We use a heavy plastic flashing that secures above both nesting box roof panels
Each roof panel has a heavy plastic liner to insulate and further weatherproof
We use strong wire mesh with small holes to keep predators out
We use heavy-duty hardware
EVERY piece is labeled and our instructions are thorough and written by us =)
We sell hen houses and runs separately allowing you to customize and expand your set up
A lot of coop space: Chicken coop for 6 hens: 55 inches wide 29 inches long, 3 roosting rods, 15 inches of clearance under the hen house etc.
THICK nesting box dividers
Well constructed ladder
Sliding door to keep your hens safe during the night
Doors under each nest box for easy access to the space under the hen house. This allows for easy cleaning and for letting the girls in and out.
Final Suggestions:
Since they are made of wood and will be outside 24/7, we STRONGLY recommend that you stain, lacquer or paint your coop. The stain applied is a base coat that is not designed to protect your coop long-term from the elements. Often in transit parts can get dinged or scratched etc. You may need to touch up your coop before staining or painting it! Once set up we recommend anchoring it down, this can be as simple as a stake on each side of the hen house and run area.
As much as we have tried to predator-proof our chicken coop kits for 6 chickens, you know your area best and you may want to put wire chicken wire or preferably hardware cloth around your coop, or put pavers. You'll always want to double-check hardware and latches to make sure everything is tight and secure. For larger predators like bears you will want to look at installing an electric fence around the perimeter.

Vwalla, coop of your dreams.
EACH piece is labeled
We write our own instructions
We pre-drill holes
We have step-by-step videos on our Youtube channel!
You can do it and invite a friend or spouse for fun!
PLEASE NOTE: We have since added many features since the recording of this video. Aprons no longer ship inside the box, We’ve added an additional roosting bar inside the coop, nesting boxes and the end of the run now have doors underneath…It’s hard to keep up with continuous improvements!
Q: Can I attach more than one Run?
A: Yes! The runs are designed to be able to add on. Look at our Testimonials Page to see how customers have creatively increased their flocks room to roam.
Q: What kind of stain or paint do you use?
A: We put two coats of a water-based stain on your coop. This provides protection right out of the box. Like all outdoor wood structures, paint or stain will protect your coop and we recommend doing it every year. You can purchase Chicken Coop Company stain on our site and pick it up at your local Sherwin Williams. We offer a 10% discount.
Q: Can I paint my coop?
A: Yes! We use water-based stain as a base, so you can paint over it with the color of your choice. Look at our testimonials page (link) for some inspiration!
Q: How does this coop hold up in the rough weather?
A: This coop is designed to withstand wind and storms. Long-term customers are happy in 49 states (sorry hawaii). It is heavy enough and the run extending under the nesting boxes ensures a stable foundation. For added stability, ground stakes or U stakes can be used. The Predator Protection Kit we offer also serves as an effective way to stake the coop down. The #1 factor is a level surface.
Q: It’s hot in our area, what do we do?
A: Our coops have multiple vents in the hen house, this air flow helps keep your girls healthy and reduces the temperature in the hen house. You can also spray the ground with water or add a roof to the run to reduce sun exposure. This will reduce their body temperature too. Sometimes we will give our girls frozen corn or something from the fridge to cool them down =).
Q: It’s cold in our area, what do we do?
A: The coop is designed to keep the elements out while allowing ventilation, which is the #1 way to protect birds in cold weather. Chickens run a high body temp and are very resilient. Chicken Coop Heaters can help when temps are very cold or below 0. We recommend radiant heaters over bulbs. This heats the chickens, not the air, reducing the requirement for added insulation to keep the heat in. Make sure that you have a chicken water heater so your flock stays hydrated on those cold days.
Q: Can we Put wheels on this Coop?
A: The coop is designed to be stationary, but it is light enough to move with two people or use a wheel system. If you use wheels, the best option is the kind you can place under the coop and remove after moving. Simply detach the run before lifting or moving.

Why choose The Chicken Coop Company?
Materials
Wood: Fir - the same wood most houses are made of. It is resilient against insects and weather while being light enough for an enjoyable assembly experience. Many other alternatives like Cedar split too easily or are too heavy. After 9 years of using Fir, it has proven to be the ideal material.
Top Quality Construction
Quality Hardware, Tongue and Groove panels and more.
Easy to Assemble
Your chicken Run has been pre-assembled in flat panels that simply need to be bolted together with a screwdriver and wrench. All cutting, gluing, stapling, finishing, and hardware installation have already been done for you. Enjoy!
Well Engineered
Structural Reinforcements, Quality Hardware, Purpose-Built Accessories and More. The difference is in the details...
Replacement Parts
Protect your investment with easy access to replacement parts. We want your flock to have a long happy life in their home and your investment to last as long as possible. Parts can be ordered by contacting customer service.
Easy Run Access with 2 Doors!
With a full door at the end of the run and a half panel on the side, you can easily access your run from wherever you need to. Convenience is beautiful.
Fast Delivery
We’ll ship your new Run directly to your door using FedEx to get it to you as quickly as possible usually in 3 to 5 days or less.

A few additional points to consider:
You are sure to love the doors under each nesting box for easy access to the space under the hen house. This allows for easy cleaning and for letting the girls in and out. The run has a door panel and on the runs end panel half the panel is a door. This makes cleaning the run a cinch and helps in free ranging.
Chicken coop with a run extension has flashing above the nesting box roof lids to prevent water from running into the nesting box
Carabiners and other hardware are heavy duty stainless steel
Easy to clean pull out tray to catch their waste and keep things clean
Our amazing coop has multiple vents providing important airflow in the chicken house
Each panel has four additional diagonal wooden support pieces
We sell hen houses and runs separately allowing you to customize and expand your set up
Run extension/support under each nesting box (without support the nesting boxes sag and quickly fall apart
EVERY piece is labeled and our instructions are thorough and written by us =)
THICK nest box dividers (twice the thickness of most other coops)
Well constructed ladder
Acrylic sliding window rather than wood which can shrink or expand and make it difficult to open the windows/vents
Hard plastic liner under all roof panels for durability and weatherproofing
We use heavy duty hardware cloth (twice as thick as chicken wire) to keep predators out
We use heavy duty hardware (Ajustlock bolt latches!)
