What is a Coop

The Coop is a farm building in Stardew Valley. It can be used to house chickens, ducks, rabbits, and dinosaurs. You won’t be able to purchase these particular animals until you purchase and build the coop.

To Coop is available in 3 different sizes, Standard Coop, Big Coop, and Deluxe Coop. You first have to build the standard size coop and then you can have it upgraded to the two larger sizes.
