I still don't get "TARDIS", Lisa. What is it? Keep trying to look it up and it remains a mystery. Is it an acronym for something?

ChooksinChoppers -- OMG! I didn't even think about THAT! Now that would be the ultimate "stealth coop" for people who live in a place where there is a limit on how many birds they can have...it's "bigger on the inside"!

TARDIS is an acronym for "Time And Relative Dimension In Space" which is one of the more unfortunate ideas that the writers of the early Doctor Who series had. I'm sure, if they had had any idea the show would have the kind of popularity and longevity that it has had, they'd have put a bit more thought into it.

The Tardis was Dr Who's time travel ship..it looked like a phone booth on the outside and when you went inside it was HUGE....big enough for LOTS of chickens :)

I'm not nitpicking but the tardis, from the outside, is an old fashioned British police 'phone box. Public 'phone boxes were a different shape and painted red.

Police boxes were placed around towns so that constables on the beat could call in to their police station and anyone else could use them to make calls to the police. The 'phone was behind a small door. Only policemen could go inside where some police equipment was stored - a bottle of Scotch, perhaps. They were phased out in the 1950's in favour of personal radio equipment. I think that some have been reinstalled in London in recent years to fool tourists into thinking that England is a still a quaint old country where coppers don't beat up people in the street.




If you really want to build a tardis coop, here are plans for one type of old fashioned British police box:

Don't say I'm not helpful.
