Coops are nighttime resting places for poultry, especially chickens. They simulate the security chickens would feel in the wild when nesting high in trees. Coops are usually completely enclosed, lockable 'houses'. Successful coops are a little bit sturdier than the willpower of the predators they must guard against, have nesting boxes and perches, and are usually regularly maintained by humans.
