Yes. A "coop" is a cage or pen that contains poultry or small animals, such as chickens, rabbits, or quails. A coop is usually a small shed-like building with a wired pen for the animals to go outside. "Coops" vary in all kinds of shapes, sizes, and designs. Some coops have walkways for the birds; some have perches, etc. If you search "chicken coops" on the internet, you will see the different kinds of coops!
