I thought this thing is cool looking, decent priced and looks easy enough to build.

It looks pretty cool. I'm going to show it to DH and ask him if he could build me something similar.

that is cool... gives a lot of room in the run...

oooh..i like!

It looks like the perfect mix of portability, space and weight . Compared to those things other companys sell this one offers the most space.

Cute!

That's a cool design, for sure. My only concern is that it doesn't have hardware cloth on the bottom or around the outside edge so critters can just dig under and get in there to the hens. Dogs, coyotes, raccoons etc would certainly be able to do that, so it doesn't seem all that predator proof to me.

That's my one complaint with most chicken tractor designs I've seen.

That's pretty swell. Not too much indoor room, but for a mild climate, great, and it wouldn't be hard to tarp the top either. Looks easy to build. Cool!

Thanks for posting the link!

I just gave the command to the biys (DH & Roomie)...it was short and sweet and went like this

Webpage open

"Boys I want you to build me one of these"

them looking at it and replying "Yes Dear...we can build it"

Gosh I loved well trained men. Train them with food...much easier that way.

Wow, I'm not showing that one to my DH, that is so amazing! Up here we would have to put some wire on the bottom, but that would be very simple to do.
Wouldn't that be neat to have....maybe I'll show DH...heee heeehee
