Is the door to the nesting area big enough for a large chicken to go through? Anyone have the dimensions of it?

The door is definately large enough for a large chicken. Dimensions for the door are 7 inches wide and 10 inches tall. This hutch is small and flimsy. However it has its uses. I used this hutch as a transitional outdoor hutch when my chickens were young and I began to get them used to being outside and as a sick bay for one of my adult chickens that was getting picked on. It served both those purposes fine. I would not keep even one adult chicken in it on a daily basis. I would keep a couple bantams in it with time out so they can get more exercise. I would recommend waterproofing the wood and maybe putting chicken wire on the bottom. Way too easy for a predator to come along and lift it up to get in.

Yes. We have kept full size Australorps, Production Red, and Americauna in here.

This would be too small for a large chicken for very long. I use it for silkies with chicks, or chicks that dont need a hen anymore.

Hi---We use ours for mini lop bunnies and the opening is fine for them, so should be fine for the chickens. I actually bought a child's wooden play house from Costco for my chickens. It is sturdier, much bigger, and the materials are better and fastened with screws instead of staples. It was less money too! Since you can stand up in it, it is much easier to clean also.Just add some dowels for perches, and a few nesting boxes, then put some chicken wire in the windows if you want to keep predators out.

No. I put two finches in it but not parakeets. It is awkward to get in and out of too, despite the doors on both sides.

Yes, the large is plenty big. Enough room for a perch and small dishes and the birds. We use them at Bird Shows and I also have seen others use them. Very convenient sense they fold down for storage.

Assembled the coop is 50 inches wide and 33 inches deep. When the front door is open it is 42 inches deep. Didn't buy the run so no comment on that.

There is no nesting door. The top can be left open or closed with a sliding tray, which is used as a play area.

There is plenty of room. I have one in my cage but my birds won't make babies :(

I haven't done it but it looks like a whole chicken would fit with room to spare but I'm not sure.

I'm not too familiar with lovebirds, and though it will likely be enough room, I would not recommend this cage for the following reason: it doesn't have a large door that you can open. We allow our little budgie out, so it's nice having a large door that opens as well as smaller doors when the large door is shut. We now use this particular cage for his night time cage and another, more practical cage for bedtime.

The large size is big enough for a smaller person to crawl through or to reach up and turn the inside door nob. But you would have that issue with any large size dog door. Included is a heavy plexiglass panel that can easily be put on or taken off to control pet access. Is this panel strong enough to prevent a person from kicking it in? I doubt it but if that is the situation you have bigger problems. I am ordering a second one of these doors in the near future for the garage. Great product and well worth the price.

This is a very large door! We have all sizes ranging from 8 lbs to a 130 lb Great Dane and it can take the abuse! It was a pain to put in, because of location we chose, but I highly recommend it!

16 1/2" high x 10 1/2" wide with about a 5" rise. I have a toy poodle (9 lb) and a an Airedale/German Shepard mix (60 lb.) and neither has any trouble getting in or out through the opening. I hope this helps. Since I put in this pet door life has been GREAT for me and for them!

The spacing is the same all over, about 1/2 in. Just make sure when you open the doors to get the food/water you close them behind yourself. I have gone to feed/water and left the doors open but pushed to and come back to find my green cheek conure flying toword my head. :)

No it was just big enough for my parakeet and he didn't love it cause the sting ends took up a lot of the inside of the nesty area. Hope it help

Yes, my cockatiel lived in it quite happily for a month when I moved and we were waiting for the movers to bring her regular cage. My only problem was transferring him in and out. The whole side opens which is nice, but it was a struggle getting him into it without him trying to fly back out at the same time. But my bird was skittish, if your budgie is totally finger trained it should be fine.

the door is 6 1/2" wide by 10" high. I have two bunnies and one is large and she has no problem going in or out. The house is surprisingly well made for the cost. I like it and so do my bunnies

The door on the right is a ramp. it is nice and wide. My cage raised jersey wooley bunny won't use ramps so I open it and set the end on a box so it makes a bridge and he enjoys the supervised change of scenery, but my daughter's new Zealand has no trouble with it.
