What happened

Costco is now selling a newly designed chicken coop that doubles as a cozy backyard cottage, perfect for raising a small flock of hens or roosters. The coop, made by Backyard Discovery, accommodates four to six chickens and includes a spacious run enclosed by heavy-duty wire mesh to provide a safe outdoor area for the birds. It features durable cedar wood with a clean white stain and a black galvanized steel roof for weather protection.

Beyond its charming farmhouse appearance, the coop is equipped with functional details like a solar-powered door that operates on a timer to secure chickens at night. It includes two elevated roosting bars for natural perching and a nesting box that makes egg collection easier. The structure arrives with pre-drilled, pre-cut wood and simple assembly instructions, ensuring the installation is straightforward even for beginners.

Amid rising grocery costs and a growing interest in sustainable food practices, many people are exploring backyard chicken keeping to enjoy fresh, homegrown eggs. This cottage-style coop addresses both practicality and aesthetics, allowing owners to add charm to their outdoor space while caring for their birds in comfort.
