The Perfect Perch: A Custom Chicken Coop

For this custom chicken coop project, our goal was simple: create a space that keeps the flock safe while adding charm to our client’s backyard. Built with function and personality, this coop was designed in collaboration with our customer to ensure every detail, from ventilation to visibility, was perfect for their feathered friends.

“I absolutely love Lancaster County Barns. They made me an amazing coop. The whole experience from the initial order to final delivery was easy. We emailed back and forth because I had so many questions, but Tom called me to go over all the details, answer any final questions, and complete the order. Delivery was flawless as well. Lancaster County Barns should pride themselves on their communication, professionalism, and superior product. I will definitely recommend them.” (Ester)

Every structure our team creates provides safety and comfort for animals, people, or equipment. This project demonstrates how practical features, such as good ventilation, easy nesting access, and sturdy materials, can complement thoughtful craftsmanship. It’s this combination of function and character that makes our work stand out.
