A urban coop that turned into an anchor?

Thanks everyone for your comments... I figured if the egyptians could move granite, i'll get this darn coop moved! I must admit, I didn't think about using pipes to move it there by rolling it! :

Add wheels!

wheels are nice, but not sure they're are an option.... I'd need car tires for this thing!

I would put it on wheels.

Oh I feel your pain there!

I knew ours was going to be heavy, I did everything I could to try and limit the weight because we had to build it on the dirt about 20' from the future location. We put it on wood to slide it, but it still took e people pushing and shoving and grunting and groaning to move it those 20 feet.

Do you know anyone with a fork lift?

This is our first chicken adventure. Their first night went very well, although I kept waking up to make sure they were ok. We aren't legal yet. I know I won't have the license in time for them to be outside, but Cleveland is forgiving

I need to make up the drawing to send to them and that is what is holding me up. Maybe the husband and I can stop by and check out your coop sometime!

Anytime you'd like to stop over would be fine. The coop should be finished within a week and ready for the ladies in two weekends. My license is "in the mail" per the health department...

What a nice little coop! Do you have very far to move it?

 

[swatskee]

About 25' LONG feet!

I like the jack it up and slide a dolly under it idea!
