Don’t create your coop area too far from utilities, especially if you must carry water or run a hose or electrical extension cord from your house, garage, or barn. Place your coop area at a reasonable distance from neighbors’ property lines, especially when setback regulations are part of municipal or county codes.

Choose a well-drained area where storm runoff and melting snow won’t make coop floors and outdoor enclosures a sodden mess. Remember also that your coop area should be close enough for you to enjoy your chickens because that is why you wanted them in the first place.
