Hobby Hen House

The Hobby Hen House, with its leaning towards traditional Ark-style design, is a popular small chicken house particularly if you are starting out with poultry keeping.

It will take up to 6 medium-sized laying hens, it has removable perches and a removable internal nest tray. For larger birds like Orpingtons we would suggest allowing a maximum of 4 birds (shown here with a trio of Pekin Bantams).

The Hobby Hen House is raised on small legs and has two handles on either end. The pop hole door doubles as the ramp, the back door lifts out to allow easy access for cleaning and egg collecting.

The Hobby Henhouse arrives ready assembled (it cannot be flatpacked). If you could like to add an enclosed run to the house see the Hobby Hen House with 6ft Run together.

Option to add the VSB automatic pop-hole opener: Add the VSB Kit below and we will fit this for you.

Max. ext. dimensions:- 1040mm wide x 1400mm deep x 1210mm high; internal house:- 960W x 800D x 940H max. Pop-hole size: 250mm wide x 300mm high.

Currently 2 week delivery. Arrives ready assembled, just screw the handles back on. The Hobby Henhouse is delivered on a pallet via Palletline Transport Company, see the Delivery page.

Painting service for the Hobby Hen House.

As you would imagine, we've selected only the very best long-lasting, microporous Hen-friendly paint for the task of painting your Hen House (please note this does not include the painting of any wired runs that you may choose to go with your henhouse).

From a bold statement of style to the subtlest of traditional earthy tones, we hope you will agree that these classic colour combinations are irresistible.

NOTE: Select your colours above where the 'body' will be the front and back vertical faces and the 'roof and accents' will include the whole sloping roof (of course), the handles and short vertical side, the legs, the ramp and pop hole door surround.

The paint we use is Dulux Aquatech Paints Range which are micro-porous paints designed to last for many years of outdoor life. They give a highly flexible opaque finish which provides excellent resistance to peeling, flaking and blistering. They are quick drying and protect exterior wood for up to 6 years. We do also provide small pots of touch up paint with any hen house we paint.

We have tried to ensure the shades shown here are a true representation of the colour but often the colour you see will depend on the screen setting of your computer or iPad. if the colour required is crucial to your scheme please do just call us for paint sample to be sent, 01300 345229.

Please make your selection from the drop down boxes above, add to the shopping basket with the henhouse and we would expect to deliver to you within 3-4 weeks of ordering. Of course do mention when ordering if you have a required-by date in mind.

Save £16 when buying the Hobby Hen House and Run together.

The Hobby Hen House is a small chicken house suitable for up to 6 hens and with a 6ft wired run to sit in front. The run is not fixed so can be moved independently and simply fits snugly under the eaves of the house.

There is an access door near the house so you can reach the pop-hole and a door at the end so that the hens can be left to roam without having to move the run and so you can place feeder and drinker in easily. For even more security against all predators, take a look at the Small No-Dig Skirt below or Anti-Fox Electric Fence Kit.

This is a good choice if you only have a few hens and need to keep them safe and secure while you are at work or away for the weekend. A very good choice for ex-battery hens.

Currently 1 - 2 week delivery. This house and run is delivered with the house ready built, and the run is flatpacked with instuctions provided. Delivery will be on a pallet via Palletline Transport Company.
