LEGO Minecraft set 21140, “The Chicken Coop”, represents a chicken coop in the block based world of the game. Released in 2018, it belongs to the Minecraft theme and contains 198 pieces for a compact rural scene.
The model translates a familiar Minecraft activity into LEGO form: keeping chickens near a simple shelter. Within the LEGO Minecraft range, it belongs to the smaller environment sets that focus on a specific task rather than a large base, mine, or landscape.
The build uses 198 pieces and presents a recognizable coop structure in the square visual language of the licence. The set includes one minifigure, Alex, a recurring Minecraft character. Its built elements suggest a small farming area, with geometric shapes and colours that match the stylised look of the game.
This set is suitable for a small display, for play scenes about everyday life in Minecraft, or for adding detail to a themed collection. Among sets from the same theme, it works as a focused companion model for expanding a village, farm, or survival area.
