The Moop

The Moop (Modular Coop) is the prototype for a prefabricated modular chicken coop for the design minded urban chicken.The Moop is compact enough to fit in most backyards while being modern enough to make any chicken happy and every owner proud. It is spacious enough for four hens while having a very small footprint that only measures 2’x2′ and can be outfitted with runs that measure 4’x2′ on either side.

The Moop is made of weatherproof plywood and treated redwood strips that form a ventilated screen around the nesting boxes and seamlessly transition into a solid roof that protects the inhabitants from the elements.

The original idea to design a coop came as a Christmas gift for my wife who wanted to raise chickens for eggs. Given our preoccupation with prefabricated architecture and design our intent was to create a chicken coop that incorporates the main advantages of prefabrication while reflecting this novel approach with a contemporary and flexible design.
