The Garden Ark – Mobile Chicken Coop


The Garden Ark

The Garden Ark is a mobile chicken tractor design that is perfect for up to 4 hens. The open floor and compact size lets you move your flock for fresh grazing, even in a small backyard.

Features include:

  • Polycarbonate "open" roof for fresh air and lots of light
  • Secure, integrated run with open floor, outer roost, and ample grazing area
  • Raised henhouse with one nesting box and an additional roost
  • Hardware cloth all around for tough protection against predators
  • Barrel-bolted egg door and larger double doors for access, feeding, and cleaning
  • Measures about 3'w x 6'd x 4'h (fits in the bed of a small pickup)
  • Portable, to move with you -- it has wheels!

Highly detailed plans for The Garden Ark and for my larger design, The Garden Coop, are available at TheGardenCoop.com. Plans are written for beginners and include 40+ pages of photos, illustrations, materials list, and step-by-step instructions. Satisfaction guaranteed, of course.

Thanks!
