Welcome to the Queen Bee Coop-on Tour. Every day for the next couple weeks or so I’ll be featuring a different chicken coop! These were all sent in by Queen Bee readers. Here’s our third coop, sent in by Elizabeth from Olympia, Wahsington.

Cost: About $150

Who built? My husband and my son made this chicken coop in May for Mother’s Day!

Favorite features: I have it in my garden and the features I really like about it are the full size door that I can walk into and the nesting boxes that I can open to get my eggs.

How many chickens do you have? I have three girls that I bought from a great farm near Pe Ell. I bought them as pullets because I didn’t want the extra cost and time to raise as a chick and they already had their shots. They should start laying in August. Oh also because we are in a neighborhood I wanted quiet chickens, great layers, friendly, and cold hardy so I have two Buff Orpingtons and one New Hampshire Red.

Thank you so much for sending in your coop Elizabeth! What a sweet mother’s day gift! I love that slanted door – the design is very cool looking at looks like fits perfectly in that space – which by the way looks spectacular! Are those sugar snap peas going to town on the left? Looks like you have your hands full!

Do you have chicken coop? I’d love to see photos and you can be featured here on Queen Bee! Email it to me at thehive@queenbeetoday.com with the subject line coop tour.

What they’re saying

Queen Bee has been my go to for many years. Not only how to save on the family grocery budget. But, how to shop. From grocerys to clothes to household. She has saved us hundreds, if not thousands of dollars cumulatively over the years. Thank You! Debby F.

Queen Bee has been one of my favorite pages to follow! A friend kept sharing her deals so I had to start following and I’m so glad I did. I have been able to purchase so many items at great prices because of her posts. She is great about commenting back to questions or even just saying thanks to people who let her know they picked up an item she posted! Christine R.

Queen Bee is an amazing site with great deals no doubt, but my favorite parts are the snippets of silliness, morning coffee, amazing second hand finds. Queen Bee has saved me lots of money, but it's also brightened many a days! Tilla H.

Queen bee has helped me to make Christmas awesome for my kids every year. We follow the blog and are able to stay in budget and get twice as many items for the family. They are the best!! Jessica T.

Can always count on QueenBee for great deals from many different stores ! She's always keeping us well informed, saved a lot throughout the years, been following for a good 7 years ! Cathy L.
