Mesa, Arizona · Custom builds
Every one is custom, sized to your yard and your animals, then delivered and installed across Arizona. Chicken people, duck people, rabbit people, cat people, parrot people: we build for all of you.
Recent builds
Measurements are length × width × height in feet. Every build below started as somebody's idea and a spot in their yard. If one is close to what you want, ask about it and we'll take it from there.
Our most popular model. Enclosed coop with nest boxes and roost bars, walk-in run, pop door between the two. This one is so roomy!
Built for a side yard. Nest boxes open from the outside, so you can grab eggs without walking in. Long and skinny, but awful pretty.
Coop up top, run underneath, cedar-stained door and shutters. One commenter: Love the colors BIG TIME.
Sally-port double door so nobody flies off. Stainless inside, galvanized outside, and an access tunnel through the wall to the macaws' air-conditioned room, ready for their hatch.
Eleven platforms in one catio, climbing up a built-in tree. The heat damn near killed me on this build 😅 but I love how this catio turned out.
Turf floor, shelves for the cat, and a pet door straight into the house. The client sent photos of both of them using it.
Our coop design, tweaked for quail. Has a separate pen inside for splitting birds up, a flip-up door for cleaning, and a top you can use as a shelf.
About 500 pounds each, hauled up on our trailer and unloaded with the farm's tractor. Our favorite delivery ever.
Same bones as the charcoal one, finished in white with barn-red shutters and door.
How it starts
You don't need plans or a size. Tell us about the spot and the animals, and Justin draws it out by hand before anything gets cut. This one is a 10×20:
How we build
Raccoons, coyotes and hawks test a coop every night. Cleaning it, every week. These are the parts we sweat over.
Stainless steel mesh on the inside. Thicker galvanized wire on the outside keeps predators out.
“The birds can't reach the galvanized wire!”
Nest boxes, roost bars, a window and a pop door to the run, all built into the coop.
Flip-up panels for cleaning and hatches for eggs, so you're not crawling in on your knees.
Corrugated metal roofs for the sun and the monsoons, finished in paint and stain, not bare lumber.

Where we've built
Builds have gone all over the Valley and one went three hours north to a farm in Snowflake. If you're in Arizona, ask.
About us
Coop There It Iz is Justin Conley and his fiancée Margaret, out of Mesa. Justin does the building, the delivering and, more often than he'd like, the lifting of things meant for two people.
We keep our own flock, so we build what a chicken actually needs. In summer we freeze mealworm and berry popsicles for them. One of our hens, Lilah, went blind after fowl pox, and she still runs the place.
"We're so busy right now, and most animals have babies in the spring. So I got duck people, chicken people and rabbit people calling me like crazy."Justin, on 12News (April 2025)
Margaret's advice, from the same story: "Chickens get bored, don't keep them too cooped up." Read the 12News story

Send a few details and a photo of the spot. We'll come back with a size, a design and a price.
"If it takes me a while to reply to you, just know I'm not ignoring you. I'm probably outside trying to do a 2 or 3 person task by myself 😅"
