Was the " big roost" part of your original plan or for a different group of birds?

 

[Johnny&Blue]

Part of overall plan. Have all young birds nothing laying for another 3 weeks. So my thought was to kept the nesting boxes seperate. I will have a rollout next boxes next week. I want the mobility to keep the grass in their runs as fresh as possible in case I have to be gone all day. Now it is just getting Blue to buy in that their his buddies .. not chew toys.. Today was a success he hung in the enclosure while I cleaned the coop.. wanted easy cleaning.. so it doesn't seem like a chore... this roost does that for me ... I have another one coming.and goal is to have at least 4 lol .. want one for new birds .. easy quarantine ... nursery lol and each is good for 15-20 birds at night to crash while they free range in the enclosure during the day.. lot of Fun

Great plans! Keep the pictures coming!
I envy your space!
All the best wishes with working with your pup. Prey drive is strong in some and not in others. Let hope he falls on the "not" side like mine and prefers to be a flock buddy!

Looks pretty sweet!
How does it roll over your 'pasture'?
Not sure why you need poop trays for a mobile coop.
Is that back roost a foot away from wall?
Will this be for layers or meat birds?
