The Breed Retreat designed by Frederik Roijé is an architectural hen house for those of you who are obsessing over chickens lately. I know I’ve seen quite a few cool chicken coops around the interwebs.

This design appears to be flawed – how do you clean it?
Perhaps there are hidden slots which open up to allow easy slide in and out of trays or cardboard sheets on which the nesting is done.

Ok, I have to say that this is utterly crazy. The reason why people get chickens is to simplify their lives, and save money. And, trust me, they will cover a fancy falling water coop with poop, feathers, dust, and blood in no time.

well I THINK it’s an awesome design idea. and those so said flaws could be worked in…. also… if you have a handy man for a hubby and extra wood… it’s a possibility to actually achieve a coop with high function with a mod style! it’s totally a look I’m after!

That beautiful work of art will be COVERED in crap in no time. I do love the look though…but it will definitely get more messy than most people would assume.
