Charnwood 200

The Charnwood 200 chicken house is designed as a quality traditional poultry house. It is 7' high at the ridge, so you can walk-in and stand up in it. The hen house has 20 wooden nest boxes which is enough for 140 hens to free range regulations. We offer two tier nest boxes to double up the amount of nest boxes to 40 if required. Perches run along the back of the poultry house with dropping boards underneath to collect the hen droppings. The droppings boards are not retractable but the shutters at the back allow for the droppings to be scraped out very easily into a wheelbarrow. The droppings boards and the perches can also be lifted out of the chicken house when deep cleaning.

Inside the poultry house there are hinged nest box rails for the birds to jump onto before they get in the nest box, these can be hooked up to shut the birds off the nests. Sliding glass windows at the front of the house allow light and ventilation. Large pop holes on each end of the house for hen release and an access door on one end. Wooden skids are supplied as standard with the 200 bird hen house. We offer metal skids as an option to make the chicken house mobile.

We make 7 sizes in this traditional hen house design, please use the links below to find more sizes.

Please note we now make the nest box roof with Stockboard, which is a durable recycled black plastic, instead of wood and felt. Some of our photoraphs show the nest boxes with a felt roof.

This free range chicken shed is delivered by our team in flat sections and onsite assembly is included in the price so long as our team can get close to the site where it is to be erected. If they cannot please inform the office and the cost of assembly can be deducted from the price. Our team can pre-drill most of the pilot holes and instructions can be sent for customer assembly. We do not hold stock of our poultry houses as they are all handmade to order. Therefore there is a delay between order and delivery which varies depending on the time of year.
