Maggie's 24 Hen House

The Maggie's 24 Hen House is a large, traditional-style, Chicken House designed for the more determined poultry keeper with room inside for approx. 24 laying hens.

For smaller hens like Bantams then capacity would be approx 30 or for larger breeds, like the Brahmas shown here, we would suggest that 16-18 would be comfortable.

The Maggie's Hen House is a substantial, robust, hen house. For full details of how we make our chicken houses please see About our Hen Houses.

There is a secure pop-hole door which drops down as the pop-hole ramp and a large door at the back making the inside easily accessible for cleaning. A pull-out droppings board under the four removable perches aids the cleaning process and the nest box section lifts off for even better access. The nest boxes are divided into four separate compartments so that the hens have more privacy for laying.

There is a ventilation grille with night shutter opposite the nest boxes and above the perches providing a good flow of fresh air, and the access panel for the droppings board is underneath.

To add an automatic pop-hole door opener you would need our kit that includes the VSD internal, pulleys and special wooden door - click for the VSD kit for Maggie's 24 Hen House Hen House. Order with the hen house and we will fit it for you.
