Free chicken coop plans are sometimes hard to come by. However, we are very lucky in that the University of Tennessee has some wonderful free plans available for a variety of farm buildings, including this one which we have for an 8x8 foot chicken house. Furthermore it also comes with all the dimensions, so there is no guesswork when building.

Raising chickens has just become a whole lot cheaper. By following this free poultry house plan you will be saving yourself a bundle if you had to buy the same thing at your local agricultural supply store.
