Metal Where a Predator Pulls
Metal edging caps every ramp slat in the two-story hutch, so a bored rabbit that would work a plywood board through by the second month meets steel instead. Wood carries the load; it never faces the chewer alone.
About TRYKERPET
One Brand for the Coop, the Catio, and the Hutch
Your hens need a latch a raccoon cannot work at 2 a.m. Your indoor cat wants an hour of sun without a free-roam risk. You get welded steel mesh, weatherproof roofing, and lockable doors across every enclosure here: walk-in coops, wheeled catios, a 2-story rabbit hutch, and a folding stroller. Pick the structure that fits your yard, then read what 308 buyers reported after their first winter with it.
Screw a TRYKERPET nesting box to a coop wall today and you are hanging the build the brand started with in December 2024; the same workshop now sends outdoor pet enclosures out for chickens, cats, rabbits, and small dogs. Chicken keeping came first: the coops and nesting boxes shipped a season before the first catio rolled onto a patio. No spec sheet tells you which build lands on your driveway with a picture-only manual and no written step. Read that further down this page rather than in a one-star review two weeks after the crate opens.
A keeper running eight hens chose the walk-in coop over a pre-fab kit. She got 47.3 square feet of run, a door she walks through standing up, and two side doors for feed. The kit she compared it against advertised capacity for ten birds and published no floor area at all.
Run a fingernail down a frame upright and you find fir and pine, not marine ply, which is why a feed sack belongs on the coop floor and never on a nesting box roof. One owner learned that the slow way and split a shelf panel under a 20-pound bag. Open the newest hutch or stroller page and you find no buyer reviews landed yet, so the spec sheet is the only thing to read before you commit. Read the worry list below before you pick a size, and lean on the 30-day return window if the footprint fights your patio.
