Best-selling backyard coops
Before you buy a coop online
Everything Aussie chicken keepers ask us, answered in one place.
Will the coop be too small for my hens?
+
We list honest hen capacity on every coop, based on real-world space per bird (not the inflated numbers you see elsewhere). If you're unsure, use our Coop Size Finder and we'll match you with the right size for your flock and backyard.
Is it hard to assemble?
+
No. Every Coopwell coop arrives flat-packed with clear step-by-step instructions, numbered parts, and all hardware included. Most customers finish assembly in 2 to 4 hours with a basic screwdriver and a second pair of hands.
Will it handle Australian weather?
+
Yes. Our coops are built from quality treated timber with a weatherproof roof, sealed joints and rust-resistant hardware. They're designed to handle Aussie sun, wind and rain all year round.
Is it predator-resistant?
+
Yes. Coops come with strong galvanised wire mesh, lockable nesting boxes, and secure latches to keep foxes, snakes and other predators out, day and night.
What if a part arrives damaged or missing?
+
We've got you covered. Just send us a photo within 30 days of delivery and we'll ship a replacement part fast, free of charge. No forms, no hassle.
How long does delivery take and is it really free?
+
Yes, delivery is free Australia-wide. Orders arrive in 2 to 5 business days (1 day processing + 2 to 4 days transit). You'll get tracking as soon as it leaves the warehouse.
What's your return policy?
+
You have 14 days from delivery to return any unused coop in its original packaging for a refund. If something's wrong with your coop, contact us first, we usually sort it out with a replacement part or full replacement.
Do you offer a warranty?
+
Every Coopwell coop comes with a 12-month warranty covering manufacturing defects and structural issues. We stand behind every coop we ship.
How many hens should I get?
+
Most Aussie families start with 3 to 4 hens, enough for a steady supply of fresh eggs without overwhelming a small backyard. Check local council rules in your area before ordering.
Can I speak to someone before I buy?
+
Of course. Our Aussie support team is available Monday to Friday by email at contact@aussiecoopwell.com. We're happy to help you pick the right coop.
Rated by Aussie chicken keepers
Finally a coop that fits all 8 of my girls
Honestly was sick of buying coops that said they fit 8 hens and then in reality it was way too cramped. This one is the real deal, my 8 girls have proper room to move and roost without fighting. Capacity is actually honest for once.
Perfect little hutch for my girls
Got this for my 3 silkies and its exactly what we needed. The ramp is sturdy and they took to the upper level on the first night, no fuss. Slide out tray makes cleaning a 5 min job on a Sunday. Really happy with the quality for the price.
Heaps of room for my girls
Bought this for my 4 isa browns and the size is just right, they have so much space to scratch around on the ground and the upper box is perfect for laying. Egg collection from the side door is a winner, no more crawling inside. Really chuffed with it.
My girls love the extra run space
Got this for my 3 ISA browns and they spend the whole day pecking around the bottom run. The extended footprint really does make a difference, they actually stretch their wings now instead of just standing around. Egg count went up the second week which my wife was pretty happy about.
Ramp was no drama at all
Was worried my girls wouldnt use the ramp but they figured it out within an hour. The upper level is their favourite spot now, they sleep up there every night. Really solid little hutch for the price.
Took us 2 hours with the mrs
Bit nervous about the size when the box arrived but me and my wife had it up in about 2 hours, no dramas. Instructions were clear and every panel was labeled. Solid build once its together, doesnt wobble at all.
Assembly was straight forward
Me and my partner put it together in just over an hour. Instructions are clear and every screw was in the box where it should be. The roof feels solid and the mesh wire is heavy duty. No regrets at all, would recommend to anyone starting out.
Built it on a Saturday arvo
Assembly took about 90 mins on my own, instructions were clear and all the hardware was labelled. The fir wood feels solid and the green felt roof gives it a nice look in the backyard. The wife loves it more than I do honestly.
Easy build for a Saturday morning
Took me and my son about 2 hours with a cuppa break in the middle. Hardware was all there, panels lined up properly and the instructions had clear pictures. The fir wood smells great and feels well finished, no splinters anywhere. Really impressed for the price point.
Built it myself on a Sunday
Im not exactly handy but the instructions were clear enough and i had it up in about an hour. All the screws were in the box and the panels lined up well. The black roof looks great against our fence.
The pull out tray saved my sundays
Cleaning 8 hens used to take me half a morning with the old coop. This pull out tray is honestly a lifesaver, slide it out, tip it, hose it down, done in 10 min. Big house doors make the rest easy too.
Kept my girls dry during the storms
Had some proper heavy rain last week and the asphalt roof did its job, inside stayed completely dry. The three doors make it so easy to get the hens in and out for feeding. They seem really happy with the extra space.
Survived the first big storm easy
Had a massive downpour two nights after setting it up and the inside stayed bone dry. The asphalt felt does the job and the mesh is properly tight, no gaps anywhere for a fox or python to get in. Hens were calm as.
Foxes havent had a look in
We live semi rural and have lost hens before to foxes so security was the main thing for me. The mesh is proper tight, the locks are heavy duty and the whole frame feels really solid. Three months in and the girls are all still accounted for, very happy.
Dry as a bone after heavy rain
Had three days of solid rain the week after i put it together and i was fully expecting damp bedding. Not a single drop got inside, the asphalt roof really works. Girls stayed cosy the whole time.
Held up through a proper storm week
We had 3 days straight of rain after I set it up and I was checking on the girls every morning expecting trouble. The asphalt roof did its job, not a drop inside and the wood still looks new. Worth the upgrade from the basic one we had before.
Great value for what you get
Was looking at coops double the price and honestly this one does everything i need. The locks are firm, the wood smells nice and fresh out the box, and delivery was quicker than I expected to regional NSW. Very pleased with the buy.
Slide tray is a game changer
Coming from a cheap coop with no tray, this is a totaly different experience. Pull it out, hose it down, slide it back in. Takes 5 minutes max. The girls have been laying every morning since we moved them in.
Slide tray is brilliant
Coming from a home made coop where cleaning was a nightmare, pulling out the tray and hosing it off in 2 minutes feels like cheating. The four doors also mean i never have to crawl in. Whole setup feels really thought out. Worth every cent.
Fits perfectly in our corner
We have a pretty small courtyard and this tall design fits right in the corner without taking over the whole yard. Still gives our 4 hens heaps of room between the two levels. Very happy with how it looks.
Box arrived complete, no missing pieces
Ordered to regional WA and was honestly expecting a part to be missing or damaged, thats how it usually goes. Box was heavy but everything inside was packed properly and every screw was there. Eggs already coming in from the nesting box, kids love it.
Kids love the two storey design
Got this so the kids could have a few chooks and they absolutely love watching them go up and down the ramp. The foldable ramp is a nice touch when its cleaning day. Took about an hour to build with my 10 year old 'helping' me out.
Good size for a small backyard
We dont have a huge yard so I was a bit worried but it fits nicely along the fence and still gives the hens plenty of room. The ramp is sturdy and they figured it out within the first day. Really happy with the buy.
Nesting box egg door is a winner
Side access to the nesting box means morning egg collection is done from outside the run, no walking through poop in my slippers. Small thing but it makes a huge diference in daily use. My silkies have settled in really well too.
Cleaning takes 10 minutes now
Used to dread coop cleaning day because my old one was a nightmare. The slide out trays on this are brilliant, pull them both out and hose them down. Whole job done before my coffee goes cold.
Hens settled in straight away
Was worried my 3 girls would take ages to use the new hutch but they were roosting upstairs the first night. The open ground floor lets them scratch around in the grass which they love. Solid little setup for a small flock.
Worth every dollar
Was tossing up between a few coops in this price range and im glad i went with this one. Quality is well above what i expected, the latches feel proper secure and the timber has held up great in the sun. Would buy again.
Great fit for our suburban block
Was worried the footprint would dominate the yard but its long and narrow so it tucks along the side fence really nicely. Still gives our 4 hens plenty of room to roam between the run and upstairs. Neighbours have even asked where we got it.
Kids are obsessed with the hens
Got this so the kids could learn about keeping chooks and they spend half the day watching them go up and down the ramp. The foldable ramp is genius for cleaning, just lift it up and sweep underneath.
Arrived complete and quick
Ordered on a Tuesday and it turned up the Friday, everything was packed properly, no missing screws or dinged panels. The slide out tray honestly works really well, makes the weekend clean so much faster than my old coop.
Held up through a wild winter
We had a really rough winter this year, heaps of rain and wind, and the coop didnt budge. Asphalt roof shed the water no worries and the inside stayed completely dry. The girls kept laying right through which says it all really.
Locks feel really secure
We have a few foxes around our area so i wanted something with proper locks. These ones feel really firm and the mesh is heavy duty. Three months in and ive had zero issues, sleep much better knowing the girls are safe.
Second coop from Coopwell
Already had the smaller one for my mums place and bought this one for ours. Same quality, same easy assembly, same solid locks. Customer service answered my email within a day when i had a question about the ramp. Cant fault them honestly.
Timber quality surprised me
Honestly expected cheaper wood for this price but the fir timber feels really solid and smells fresh. No splinters or rough edges anywhere. The contoured edges are a nice touch too, dont worry about the kids near it.
Wish i bought this sooner
Went through two cheap coops before this one and they both fell apart within a year. The Highland feels like it will last ages, everything is tight and well finished. My 3 silkies have never been happier.
