Is this a complete chicken house or just a run?

It is a run. There is no insulated or solid-walled house, so birds need a separate coop for nesting and roosting, or you attach this to one.

How many chickens does it really hold?

The maker says 4 to 6. That fits as daytime run space; overnight housing still needs a coop with perches and nest boxes.

Will it keep foxes and raccoons out?

Not on its own. The hex mesh and lockable door stop casual attempts, but the light wire and open base need reinforcement, such as a buried apron or heavier mesh, in areas with determined predators.

Can I leave it out in winter?

The frame and cover handle rain and sun, but heavy snow load and strong wind can bend the frame or tear the PE cover. Clear snow and add guy lines or take the cover off in storms.

Does it need a floor or ground preparation?

There is no floor. Set it on level ground and add a skirt of mesh or pavers around the base to stop digging, and use the stakes or weights to anchor the frame.

Can it be attached to a wooden coop?

Yes. The panels can be joined to an existing wooden cage or coop to extend the run, which is how most owners use it.

Our take on the Walk-In Metal Chicken Coop with Cover

This is a walk-in poultry run built from a galvanized steel frame and hexagonal wire mesh, sized about 9.8 by 6.6 feet with a 6.6-foot peak and a lockable door. A PE cover spans the roof and part of the sides to give shade and rain protection, and the run is marketed for 4 to 6 chickens or for rabbits and ducks. Compared with wooden coops it is cheaper to buy, easier to move and does not rot, but it is a run rather than a predator-proof house: the wire is light, the frame is thin tube, and it needs assembly plus extra anchoring. It suits keepers who want a large fenced outdoor area attached to an existing henhouse.
