Good fit for our coop
Fits nicely inside our coop. Too soon to judge long-term wear, but the birds took to it right away, including the younger ones.

Flock finally uses it
New chicken owner here — wanted something for their outdoor run. They were wary at first for a couple of days, but now the hens roost on it. Very stable. Not sure the swing will get used, but time will tell. Took about 20 minutes to assemble with clear directions.

Roomy and fast to assemble
Larger than expected and easy to put together. Fits 3–4 chickens per roost bar depending on size. Wood is a bit soft so it can mark, but that’s expected. Instructions were clear and a screwdriver was included; assembly only took about 10 minutes.
