I had a mechanic who helped me put it together and it really was pretty straightforward and he’s quite adept. It’s an incredibly well built tool looking forward to using it. It just came in last week on Thursday and today is Tuesday and so we had on Monday Tuesday we put it together.

I purchased these tractors for my small organic egg and meat farm. Wendell worked so hard to answer all my questions, get me exactly what I wanted to purchase, AND help me get the most affordable freight since I'm on the West Coast. I shopped around. There are other distributors of these coops and some copy-cats. But NO ONE will work as hard for you as Wendell and Home Place Market! I'm in Oregon and I've had so many people come over and ask me to look at these coops. They are getting a lot of attention!! But who cares about that... they work AMAZINGLY WELL! And they're made of super high quality components. My dad and grandfather had fastener companies. I appreciate things that are well-made. Also, I'm not very handy and can't be fixing things every day. I need infrastructure that works hard for me and I don't have to do a lot of maintenance. I want to enjoy the birds and not be worried about their homes! We have really intense predator pressure. These tractors, Premier 1 electric netting, and my wonderful dogs have meant that my beautiful birds are SAFE from predators. This peace of mind is priceless. I'm so grateful and happy to tell anyone who has questions about my experiences with these tractors and the unbeatable customer service at Home Place Market. As soon as I finalize my website, I'll include that for more photos! Thank you Wendell!!!

This is 10x12 coop is a great chicken coop! The directions are straightforward making it easy to set up. It allows us to move our chickens around easily and provides them with plenty of space.

The 10x12 Alumi-Coop is perfect for my flock. Mine arrived slightly damaged from the loading and unloading during shipping. Wendell was quick to respond, and I got the replacement parts right away.

The coop set-up was straight forward and easy enough. I did it alone, but I would recommend 2 people. A couple of the steps were a little tedious all by myself but would have been a breeze with a partner.
My chickens love it. They get all excited when they see me reach for the handle now, because they know new grass is coming.
They aren't laying yet, so I can't speak to the nesting box, but it looks like it will work very well.
The waterer with the cups is working great. Best waterer I've ever had for my chickens, and I've had a few. This one stays clean, and just exposes enough water for them to get a drink, the rest stays closed off and is bug and algae free.
The feeder, I may still need to play with. My chickens aren't grown enough for me to mount in on the outside, so I mounted it on the inside, and they are making a mess of it. I probably just need to adjust how much comes out, the hopper opening is adjustable.
Moving it is easy for me, but I'm a big guy. My wife, who is petite, found it too hard to move. Same with my 8-year-old son. I think it's a very well-designed mechanism to lower the wheels and lift the front. I don't mind moving it at all.

Last year, my whole flock got killed one night as a pack of stray dogs found a weak spot in my home-made coop/run set-up. This Alumi-coop is essentially Fort Knox. I don't think there are weak spots, everything is made of strong metal for the walls and thick tarp for the cover. Digging would be a dog's only option, and I don't think there is a good solution to that, considering the coop is mobile.

Aluma coop was easy to assemble and works perfect in the field. Excellent product.
