Commercially available chicken hutch.
Visually it looks great but it offers very limited space for the
chickens to move about. It does offer easy access
the nest box as the roof over it doubles as a lid that can be lifted
up. Image courtesy of the internet.

A flat roofed commercially available chicken hutch.
Notice that there is a small gap under on section of the frame due
to the ground being uneven. This offers a tempting weak spot
for foxes to dig under. This can be easily prevented by
tacking chicken wire to the base, but then the chickens won't
be able to scratch the ground. Image courtesy of the
