When should I order a coop if I want it for spring?
Order in the fall or winter. Lead time is about two weeks most of the year, but from March through June it can stretch to six weeks, when everyone wants a coop at once.
Ordering early also leaves time to check your town's chicken rules and get any permit in hand before the build.
