I am in my last stages of construction on our chicken coop. I was wondering if anyone had any good ideas on a system that would be easy to move it? It's pretty big and It is in two sections a coop and then the outside pen. ( which just all attaches after it is moved into place. Since I live by myself I can't really move this big thing by myself lol. I like to think I have muscles but I proved to myself the other day that I don't just trying to move it with myself and a friend.
Any advice would be very appricated.

How big is it? Size? Do you have a truck? Tractor? You could put it on some 4x4 skids and drag it maybe?? Idk pics would help if you can post some up.
 
I have found that the best way to move already erected coops is by placing it on 4" schedule 40 PVC pipe. You'll probably need 3 pcs so the coop stays on 2 while you keep moving one from the back as it moves to the front. It makes it easy to turn and move. If your yard is very smooth you could go smaller like 2" but 4" rolls better in the grass and such.
