Our range of chicken coops:

There is hardly anyone who is not fed up with egg scandals and reports about the sometimes cruel forms of farming in the egg industry . So it is hardly surprising that more and more people are thinking about keeping their own chickens in the garden for self-sufficiency. One of the first questions that usually comes up is which hen house to buy. Do you feel the same way? Don't worry: we explain below which aspects you should consider when choosing your chicken coop.

What you should look out for when buying a chicken coop

The size and breed of your flock of chickens:

If you want to buy your perfect chicken coop, you should know in advance how many chickens and, above all, which breed of chicken you want to keep. This will determine the height of the perches and nests in the coop, for example.

Our chicken information page www.heinis-huehner.de will certainly be able to help you choose the right breed(s) - and of course we are also happy to help and advise you personally.

The material of your chicken coop:

The current demand for chicken coops is currently benefiting a whole sector of low-cost manufacturers that are springing up like mushrooms. You can get chicken coops for just a few euros from the big online retailers. These are usually made of wood, which in our opinion is the biggest mistake you can make when building chicken coops. Why? Quite simply, wood is actually a wonderful material - e.g. for furniture and flooring. It is natural, breathes and lives. And it is precisely this life that is the disadvantage of wood when building chicken coops. In winter, when the humidity rises, the material swells. The coop warps. Windows and doors are more difficult to open or no longer close properly. If the floor of the coop is also made of wood, rats will start to eat their way through from below.

In summer, when the red mite season begins, the material shrinks. Cracks and crevices appear - the perfect breeding ground for mites and the like. Fighting them without chemicals is almost hopeless. Depending on the weather, these little bloodsuckers multiply so quickly that rabbits could become envious. Within a few days, a few introduced animals can turn into thousands. As you can see, choosing the right material is crucial for a chicken coop that you and your chickens can enjoy for a long time. It is therefore better not to buy a wooden chicken coop. Our grandparents already knew this and therefore kept their chickens in brick coops, which were regularly whitewashed to get rid of vermin. But who wants to mess around with caustic, unslaked lime these days? So what is the alternative? Quite clearly: chicken coops from HeiniCoop!

Plan ahead and buy a chicken coop from HeiniCoop

During the summer months, we receive an alarmingly high number of calls from desperate wooden coop owners who need a new home for their chickens very quickly. "I'm disgusted by the coop!", "It's swarming everywhere!" or "My chickens are already pale!" - these are typical statements. When we then tell them our delivery times, their world often collapses. These people have grown to love their garden chickens as if they were normal pets. Often they are also friendly breeds that quickly grow on you. It hurts to lose tame animals. Even if they are "only" chickens. Tears often flow and people talk about giving their chickens away. In short: nerves are frayed. Fortunately, that doesn't have to be the case! It's best to decide from the outset to buy a chicken coop made in Germany - such as those from HeiniCoop.

HeiniCoop: one of the first addresses if you want to buy a good chicken coop

We don't promise you that you will never see a mite in the coop again. Just as your dog can bring home a tick or fleas, chickens can bring mites into the coop.

But we promise you that you have a good chance of avoiding an invasion in the future. To make this promise, we have equipped our hutches with our patented anti-mite effect, which we have worked on for a long time. The most important criterion here is the choice of materials and precise work, accurate to the millimeter.

Thanks to the high quality that we apply to every coop construction and the first-class materials, HeiniCoop chicken coops are extremely durable and also easy to keep clean. No chemicals are required for cleaning - hot water is all you need! And even if you neglect your coop (against our advice!) for a few weeks in the summer and there is a mass reproduction: With a HeiniCoop chicken coop, you still have a good chance of winning the mite war - and without having to buy and use any chemicals.
