The Garden Ark
By: TheGardenCoopThe Garden Ark – Mobile Chicken Coop

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!
John
