Designed for chickens who also have access to an outdoor pen - ideal
for
observation by children of all ages -
the
Rowlinson Chicken Coop provides a
comfortable
home for up to six chickens. Collecting
newly laid eggs is the most satisfying activity for any child, allowing
them to understand where their food comes from. This
Rowlinson Chicken Coop creates an environment that puts chickens at
ease (so they lay eggs) and makes it easy for school children to
collect the
freshly laid eggs.
Comfortable Roosting
With internal perches and a three compartment nest box, the Rowlinson
Chicken Coop provides your poultry with the
privacy and comfort
they need to be
frequent
egg layers. The
included ramp gives your chickens easy access to outdoor exercise
space meaning children can still
watch them and learn.
The coop's sliding front door with hook support enables you to
control your chickens' access to the outdoor pen, and can be locked
shut at night to keep your chickens safe from predators. Your chickens
can also be safely locked inside during sports day or other school
events, keeping them safe from the risk of injury.
Accessible for Collecting Eggs, Petting, and Cleaning
A removable lid on the nesting box allows
ready access to fresh, still warm
eggs
at any time of day, so you can collect eggs without opening the main
door of the coop and disturbing your chickens. The rear door
on
the coop can be opened to pet chickens or to pick them up without
having to enter their outdoor pen. The coop's floor slides
out
for
simple and easy
cleaning. This means school boys and girls can
experience
the joy of collecting eggs that their own chickens have
produced in a clean and safe environment.
Built to last by a family business
Constructed with high quality untreated FSC Certified Timber from
well-managed forests, the Rowlinson Chicken Coop is an asset for any
school. Built by Rowlinson, a UK family
business
established in 1926, the coop is designed to last, with an
expected life span of 10-15 years
if
it is well looked after, as generations of small minds pass through the
school gates.
Benefits of keeping chickens
Chickens will provide you with fresh eggs, free organic compost, and
hours
of pleasure for children of all ages. Keeping chickens
will give parents and children peace of mind that eggs are being laid
by a chicken that is well looked after.
A chicken needs access to 3-4 square feet of outdoor space, so we
recommend an outdoor pen of 18-24 square feet is accessible to the six
chickens kept in your Rowlinson Chicken Coop. If you have a
schoolyard or outdoor area that is secure, you can, of course, let your
chickens roam
free. Otherwise, a suitable run can be created using our
Poultry
Netting. For more information, see our
guide
to keeping chickens.
Instructions and fixing kit are included, making the Chicken Coop quick
