Introducing the New California Coop - A Tiny Home for Chickens
Vložit
- čas přidán 17. 01. 2019
- Introducing our new California Coop. This tiny coop has all the same great features and quality construction of all our other coops, just with a smaller footprint. It's only 4' x 9' with a 3' x 4' henhouse, perfect for people with small backyards and small flocks. This chicken coop can house 4 or 5 full-sized chickens comfortably or more for bantams. Matt goes through all the features of the Cali Coop and shows some improvements made in the development of this coop that will be incorporated in our American Coops. The California Coop incorporates the deep litter system, is made from premium Douglas Fir lumber, has polycarbonate windows, a 2-gang egg hutch, a 4-foot roost bar, half inch PVC coated hardware cloth, and Galvalume roofing. Same great quality in a small coop with a small price tag.
UPDATE: Our California Coop now comes with HDPE standard in the henhouse and egg hutch which and the price has increased since the filming of this video.

![Chicken Coop Build - Now Complete [pt2]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/lPMjIJFpq7E/mqdefault.jpg)
In preparing to build my own coop (and during the build) I've watched these videos so many times. Last night I was down in the basement working on a frame for the roof, and I could hear this video playing upstairs--my stepdaughter with severe autism had seen this so often that she put it on when she got on CZcams lol. She loves familiarity, and will watch things over, and over bc of the comforting feeling. I had just watched sooo many Carolina coop vids (multiple times) that they fulfilled that for her I guess lol. Thought it was really cute, wanted to share.
Thank you for sharing that with us. ♥
I'm building mine right now and I too have modeled mine off of one of their coops. A 4'x6' coop and a 12' run. 6' tall walls for the run and 7.5' overall height. I put linoleum tile in my coop to protect the wood and I've also insulated the coop floor and will insulate the walls as well, using left over Rockwool Insulation that I have! I'm also going to add tile to the first foot inside the walls, so the bedding won't penetrate into the wood where there's contact.
I liked the coconut basket comment. I've got a few of those I finally know what to do with.
Good job Matt on the coup!! Nice really like the lip!! I wish mine had that to keep out rain and draft. Thanks
Thanks 👍
I appreciate your money saving manufacturing decisions at the sacrifice of a beauty 👌
Just a very high quality product. I love these coops and I can’t wait to try and build my own.
I'm a good carpenter from North West Florida / Gulf Coast. And that is an amazing value for the workmanship and quality. Great job
Thank you for the high praise from a fellow woodworker!
Wow, wow, wow.... Amazing. You people have some really nice coops. 🙂
Thank you.
I am very much a perfectionist in everything I do and I love buying from companies that just do it right the first time. That’s why I drive a BMW, because they are such a perfectionist, and that’s why I would buy one of your chicken coops as soon as I get chickens.
Thank you!
Really love it, this is the best coop ever, by the way me and my brother in law copied your coop design or instructions for our coop🥰
I love your productand I love your information. I haven’t kept chickens for over 30 years, mostly due to predatory problems I stopped keeping chickens. I’m in a new home on a little more than half an acre, and with it being over 20 miles to the nearest town, I would like to raise my own chickens for my own eggs, at over five dollars a dozen. It seems it would be more practical and healthier.. thank you for what you do. I appreciate all your effort. your coops are beautiful!
I could see this also working as a secondary coop set up for folks with larger flocks who would need something for growing out their pullets.
I LOVE this!!! Would you be able to make a video of just a regular customer assembling this coop without your help? I would love to see what I’d need and if I could assemble. 🤗
Me too❤️❤️❤️
Me too!
Yes please!!!!
Single lady, handy but not tool-schooled, can I do this (American) without much help?
That's pretty reasonably priced for what you get.
Matt, that price is a bargain!!! I decided I wanted some chickens, looked at some of the coops from tractor supply and though just as you did they were junk. So I saw some of your videos and thought I could save a few dollars trying to build one as nice as yours (even though I don’t have that much experience with construction I was sure I could build one better than the store coops) plus I needed a project for the holidays-mine is 4x4 like this one. While it is much better than a store bough coop, I know it’s not as nice as yours and here is the kicker, I didn’t save any money. The money I have in materials alone are more than the price of your coop. I wish I had seen this smaller coop when I was looking at your videos originally, I probably would have gotten one. I have a lot more respect for the craftsmanship that goes into your coops lol.
M M I can’t thank you enough for these very kind and needed words. You can see now how hard we have worked and are working to get the price down. Yes the price alone in materials makes this coop so worth it not to mention the high quality in materials. We will never give up trying to beat China at this game. Again thank you so much. May we share your words?
Carolina Coops Videos yes you can share my words
I really enjoy watching your videos over the past year and the live chicken talk ones also ! Just amazing what you guys have accomplished with your coops. I have a little one toget started bit would love to purchase one of yours in the future if everything works out. We just moved a few months ago to a house with a little over an acre and we're going to get a half dozen chickens to start with soon. Can't wait to get started ! Thanks for all the great information.
A tiny loop screw on the inside of window and end of Dow peg with string tied to both will leave peg in window when not in use and easy to access and not lose.
My personal preference for the polycarbonate windows would be to have them inset into the frame so it is flush and if possible some kind of clear glue instead of screws.
Magnificent, what more can I say. I know you want to get the cost down even lower but I am afraid your quality of build and appearance might suffer. Considering that this coop is built to last it is a worthwhile investment.
Thank you for your kind words. We would never sacrifice our quality or appearance just for costs sake. However, we are always looking for ways to keep our costs down whether it is from sourcing suppliers, shipping, or just getting quicker and more adept at assembling our coops. So no worries, we take pride in our high quality and we appreciate people like yourself who can recognize it.
Nice mini one😊😉
Great coop. Great for California Living....
Thank you!
@@CarolinaCoopsVideos se volessi comperare con spedizione italy, quanto mi costerebbe il tutto.grazie.
@@toninovenditti6065 please email sales@carolinacoops.com, give them your address in Italy and which exact coop you want, they can give you an estimate. Thank you.
We need more of this videos matt
Take the little dowels and give someone a dozen of them and put them in a very cute little 4 x 4 bag that has your logo on it and they can hang them on a little part that you could put them on a hook right under the hinges
Beautiful coop! I can't afford this so I will do my best to use your ideas!
Same I’m only 12 so I’m build my own
Here is an idea- Drill the dowel and attach it to the carabiner with a little bungee cord. When the carabiner is used to keep the window closed the dowel stays with it and the opposite when you use the dowel to hold the window open the carabiner is with it. The become one unit that always has its place.
perfectly designed. it doesnt get any better in that little space. only needs preservation and a vinyl bathtub floor
This set up looks great and would fit perfectly in a smaller suburban yard. The price came in a bit higher than was discussed in the first California Coop video, but I would rather pay a few hundred dollars more for your outstanding quality than see you compromise on material, hardware and workmanship to get the price down. The Chinese have already shown how that works out...JJ
Thanks. The first one was a smaller coop. We are also selling this panelized, so most of the assembly work is done for you. We do hope to get the price down, but for now we believe this is a great value for all that you are getting. We're glad you do see the craftsmanship and value in this coop.
As for your dowel why not just drill a hole threw the dowel across the grain and have a ring like on your keys and have a chain have it long enough to hang down to the last hole and screw the chain to the top of the holes when not in use just let it hang down and then it can be put in any of the holes.
Love this size! Why not add a piece of flashing as a gutter to both sides making it less messy when it rains and easy to collect the rainwater to use for watering the chickens? It would be very inexpensive and add so much.
Hi Im in Northern California and Id love to have this coop. I was thinking for the little notch/plug for the window you can use the same idea with the cable of the lock out door, use the cable, chain or rope/string attached to the lock with the window plug/peg attached at the end. Awesome coop!
Thank you.
Hello about where to place de wood pin. With a pice of fishing line you can make a nut on the corner and always is there swinging and went you need to used is right there eye level. You do very nice work ! congratulations
I like the window peg proposed location, but I would drill enough holes for extra pegs (back ups).
I'm so ready to buy this coop! The price seems fair. Just hoping there isn't a huge shipping delay or we'll have to settle for something else.
I love this chicken coop. It is perfect for someone who has a small flock and wants to keep their birds safe. Great job. Hopefully the shipping cost is built into the price of the coop.
The shipping cost isn't because we ship all over the world. But it is shipped in panels, so most of the assembly is already done for you. It has all the high quality construction and materials of an American Coop, it's just a bit smaller. Thanks for watching.
Thank you for responding. It is a nice coop. @@CarolinaCoopsVideos
A hook and eye on each side of the inside coop window would be ideal . Very easy and cheap. Attach the hook to the side of the coop.
Have you ever considered doing a Hen House and Chicken Run Workshop? Do you sell Blue Prints? Great video! I have enjoyed watching! Thank you for sharing!
HI Jose, we hope to start up our live podcast again to help people with their coops and chickens. We don't sell our plans currently but hope to do so in the future. A workshop is a wonderful idea. Thanks for watching.
very nice
Love this!
Have you considered making the ramp angled like a stairway with a landing? The girls can still easily use it. However, for people like me who use a cane and have balance issues, not having a long, straight ramp getting underfoot would be a blessing. Just a thought.
Hi Sharon, we made a ladder now standard on our coops, which is shorter than the ramp. We also can always custom make anything for anyone to make things easier for them.
You don’t have tons of ventilation with that window unless that window is open but when it is closed in inclement weather where are the other vents?
ever notice there is never a fixed price on any product advertized in youtube? kinda reminds me of buying a {new} motorcycle. turns out it was 2 years old. it was new because it never sold or ridden at the motorcycle dealership.
on the windows what about metal pins with a small chain hooked on to the outside of coop
Thanks for the suggestion. We are trying to keep the cost down with the wood pegs and we used chains on our American Coop prior to moving to the dowels.
ZzzJust drill a hole over the window for a couple pegs
Wow I love it perfect
👏
I will have to check this on out. I may be able to buy this one. Question: Will this hold 6 chickens? I'd like to start with 6 to 4. Lol! 4 is my last choice. Thank you!
Hi Ramona. The California Coop is made for 4 chickens. It's much too small in the run (and we think it's too small in the henhouse) for 6 chickens. Our American Coop is best if you plan on having more than 4. With the California Coop it's best to create space for them outside the run since it's a small run area.
epoxy a little magnet to the dowels so they stick to the hinges
7:20 is there metal mesh screening (or something) covering the ridge cap on the interior? Need to know how mice are kept out!!
We have added that, but mostly to keep out snakes.
This is an awesome Chicken Coop, I'm looking at getting some Sapphire Gem Chickens, our HOA will allow us to have 4 chickens. Will this be enough room for them? Also did you solve the Window Peg issue, on where to put the Peg? I'f I had the coop, I would drill a hole in the peg, tie a string on it and screw it to the wall and let it hang next to the window. Just my two cents
This coop is perfect for 4 chickens with free ranging. We drilled holes near the windows to hold the dowels. Thank you for watching.
What gauge is the hardware cloth you guys use in chicken coop?
maybe incorporate a mesh floor even with the nesting box opening for qual
if the shipping wasnt so much I would be all over this
shipping isn't so bad depending on where you live. We ship out of NY.
@@CarolinaCoopsVideos do you ever ship from your North Carolina location? I'm in GA, and want to pay for your turn key and it would cheaper for me coming from NC than all the way from NY.
Have you thought about using recycled plastic board in place of the treated pine around the bottom?
Can the ramp up to the hen house be placed on the side rather than the middle?
It's possible. We streamline our build process in order to get coops out the door quicker, but if requested, it's possible.
Any chance to buy such a coop in UK? I really love it.
We can ship to the UK. We have a coop going to Ireland soon. Just contact us at sales@carolinacoops.com. thanks
How much heat does the roof give off inside during the summer? Just wondering if need to add some type of insulation to protect the hens from the generated from the roofing material. Was just wondering.
Our metal roofing does not heat up the coops, in fact it does just the opposite. Metal has a low thermal mass, heat is not absorbed into the roofing material and then transmitted into the coop. In fact, the Florida Solar Energy Center states that metal roofing absorbs about 34 percent less heat than asphalt shingles.
The painted metal roofs are even more energy efficient that plain metal roofing. (yes, even black roofing!) These roofs not only reflect solar energy, but also re-emit most of the solar energy that the coop absorbs.
Keep in mind, the chickens are in the henhouse to lay and sleep. Our covered runs help provide cool shade in the hot summer.
Thanks for your question.
Can you add a second roost bar and would this fit 6 chickens?
There really isn't much room for another roost bar, nor is this coop made for 6 chickens. We prefer the American coop for 6-15 chickens. Thanks for watching
Why don't you drill a hole through the dowel, put a thick string through it that is long enough for it to hang to reach any hole., use an eye hook above the holes to attach the stringed dowel & then its always there & can reach any hole. Just a thought.🤔❤❗
Thank you. We now makes holes in the frame where the dowels can be when not in use.
How many chickens would you say would fit I was going to get two chickens do you think I should get a smaller one or is that the right size
How far does the nest box protrude out of the side? In other words how wide is the coop including the nest box?
Do you get a step
By step video for putting it together?
We are hoping to do that for you all. We're just so busy making chickens coops!
attach a small stainless steel chain to the peg.
I LOVE this coop! When was this video made? Were you able to make it 1000.00 yet? I really need it by June when my baby chicks will be going out.
Hi Kelly. We actually made upgrades to this coop and therefore we cannot yet get the cost down. Unfortunately the price of lumber and all our other high quality materials just keeps going up. We are constantly trying to keep the costs down. If you need to order a coop like this, please visit our website, we are in our busy season right now.
carolinacoops.com/shop/california-coop/
thank you.
Question regarding your egg hutch, have you ever considered building them so a roll away system could be incorporated into it?
Chris Zacho we have for customers that don’t want to remove chickens that have learned to become egg eaters. However we don’t want to make that standard so we can keep the price as low as possible.
@@CarolinaCoopsVideos I realize not everyone want's one, costs and all that. Do you offer roll-away next boxes as an option?
Chris Zacho yes we can build you anything you want
can this be used as quail coop?
We can make modifications for quail, but yes it can be a quail coop.
Can you put the storage drawers under the coop like the storage shed/chicken coop that I saw in one of your other videos?
Check out our latest live video (you can still watch even though it's no longer live) that is behind the scenes of an American Coop being loaded onto the truck. This one has a built in storage area under the nest box.
Matt, can you just make the coop door just one door instead of two. Mine is one door with the center screened. Then i made a center door. Maybe make it a small window. I'm going to change mine to a window in the center of the door. I have to wait for it to warm up here in Chicago.
do you mean the henhouse doors?
@@CarolinaCoopsVideos i will send you a email with some pictures
@@CarolinaCoopsVideos yes the henhouse door
Is there enought room for them to jum up?or do you put them on the bars at night?
Yep, they jump up on the roost bar at night, no problem, lots of headroom in our henhouses.
Was thinking about getting some chickens soon and very keen on some very friendly ones. Keep hearing Buffs are great for the family, but concerned that the hen house might be to small for those big birds. You have any idea how well 3-4 of those girls could fit in cali coop hen house?
Hi Adam. Three or four buffs would definitely fit in there. We always say 12" of roost bar space per chicken. Most of the times they squish together anyway. Thanks for watching.
@@CarolinaCoopsVideos Thanks for the advice! Looking forward to order from you guys in the future
Is this minnesota winter approved??
We have our coops in every state in the U.S., so many are in states with harsh winters, this coop is just a smaller version of our popular American Coop. Plus with our winter storm shields to keep out blowing snow, this coop and all our coops can handle the harshest winters. Hope that helps.
Do you offer an option to close off the nesting boxes to prevent the girls from sleeping in the nest boxes?
We don't, however, we advise people who have young birds that aren't laying to close off the nest boxes, either screw in a piece of plywood or cut a piece of cardboard to cover it up. Then they learn to go on the roost bars at night. Once they are laying they will instinctively go in the nest box. The are creatures of habit, so if they have good habits from the beginning, they should continue on with them. I don't know of any of our customers having issues with hens sleeping in the nest boxes. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching.
The hen house is 3 feet wide so couldn't you fit two perch bars in there? Maybe get 8-10 girls in ? What do you think?
Hi Theresa. This henhouse is 4 foot wide, and we only put one roost bar in there, because it's only 3 foot deep. We want the chickens to have enough room to be on the roost bar and for their dropping to hit the deep litter bed and not another roost bar or chicken. The worst thing you can do is to overload a henhouse. We love the one-foot rule for chickens on the roost bar, but 10 inches is good too. We want to create an environment that is healthy for your chickens. Thanks for watching.
@@CarolinaCoopsVideos It just seems to me that two bars at the same height 12 inches from either side would allow for a few more birds. They'll only be sleeping and laying eggs in there.
@@theresaherfindahl5781 We believe that more health issues come from overloading a henhouse, and we find the way we space the bars works best for all breeds of chickens to keep them healthy. We could do two bars for people keeping small birds like bantams, or seramas.
I'd like the perch farther from the nesting boxes.
The perch bars are for getting into the nest boxes, although most chickens just hop right in. Are you referring to the roost bar?
Yes, the long , higher bar. My hens all congregate at one end of their perch. If it ended at the boxes their poop would pile up in or very close to nest.
@@zeus3926 That's typical of hens to gather on one end. However, our coops use the deep litter method and we love the industrial hemp with our DL. All our customers usually do is just break up the poop a bit to help decomposition. That way it also doesn't get on their feet when they visit the nest boxes. Thanks for watching.
Do spiders get in
My last chicken coop, my butt, I settled for one of the Amish coops and it was just so small and there was no way to make it functional. It was a joke.
Could you use it for qual
How well do the doors hold up with no bracing?
We have had no problems with the doors. For our Dutch doors, we do bracing, but these doors don't require them since the hardware cloth is so lightweight.

Can you make a metal dowel with a chain on it instead of wood?
not a bad idea, however metal dowels would be more expensive and difficult to source.
My internet is very unstable today, did he say how many chickens standard or bantam will be ok for the nest box and perches?
This coop will fit up to 5 full sized hens on the roostbar (receommend 4) and twice as many bantams. Thanks for watching
Carolina Coops Videos thanks. My husband and I have watched several videos trying to decide what size to get.
@@belenalee5986 how many chickens do you plan on having and will you be able to free range them? That will help determine size. :)
Carolina Coops Videos Our beginning goal is to start with six since that’s the minimum we can order. Whenever an adult hen gets broody we’ll enter more into the flock. As of right now we cannot free range but my goal is to do that netted chicken garden that was featured in one of your other videos so we can sort of free range. It’s going to be about 12-18 months before we can even purchase one of the coops, we were thinking the American since it’s not that much more but I’ve always had the belief buy the best and biggest in case your needs grow. Husband do thinks this coop and we’re done but everyone says you get a little four hen flock you’ll get more and more... I know for dang sure he won’t be okay getting the California coop and then in a year or two have to get a bigger one. 😅

@@CarolinaCoopsVideos Can I place the week old brooding chicks with a heater inside the coop to start with?
Is there an option for screen doors on the back side? I'm concerned about ventilation down here if FL, zone 9.
To add to this question, have you considered doing the old American Coop style panels over the screen doors for customers who want this option?
@@augustl8876 thank you August, that's exactly what I meant.
We considered and decided that it really didn’t look good because of the smaller size on the back of the henhouse. Also there is already lots of ventilation we felt it was better to keep the price down. If customers wanted to pay for it we would definitely build them what they want.
How much did it take to build

WHY NOT BUILD THE WHOLE COOP OUT OF PRESSURE TREATED WOOD?
pressure treated wood is treated with chemicals, that many don't want to expose their chickens to, plus pressure treated wood is more difficult to paint or stain immediately, so we choose a better product in Douglas fir.

@@CarolinaCoopsVideos In the video, you mentioned you were going to try and get this down to $1000K but at the time was, $1495. It's now $1750. Is there a $1000K version?
@@xtaticca Hi Sean, we wanted to get the price down, however, the materials we use didn't allow for it and we have since added food safe high density polyethene in the henhouse and egg hutch. So that raised the price. We handpick and only use the best lumber which unfortunately does not allow us to make this quality coop any less expensive.
What kind of paint is safe for inside coop?
We use Sherwin Williams exterior paint for our coops. Of course it's best to paint the coops before your chickens take up residence, and since it's exposed to the open air there is no concern about fumes or off gassing. Hope that helps.
Do you paint inside the coop?
@@judyhowell7075 We do for our customers that want us to and our customers do as well. The lumber we use isn't pressure treated (except on the base) and will last longer if it's painted or stained.
The bottom of the henhouse, however, either has high-density polyethylene inside or we suggest treating it with linseed oil to keep out moisture.
