Looking for a large run that can be moved

[Tracyree]

Does anyone know of a fairly large run that can be moved every few weeks to rest the ground? The bigger the better. I loike the look of the omelet walk in run, but it’s not really moveable. The overez is like 400lbs. Anything i don’t know about out there?

Depending on your predator load, electric poultry netting might be more practical. Anything permanent is going to be fairly heavy and cumbersome to move, especially on uneven ground

Have you checked out the dog kennel-type chicken runs found on places like Amazon? I don't have one, but most of them don't look all that heavy to me.

I built this mega chicken tractor last summer and it has been great. It's definitely heavy but I can pull it around the yard on my own, or use a tractor if I have to move it a longer distance.

I wouldn't call that large, TBH.

It's 8ft x 10 ft, bigger than the omlet that's 6x9.

Gonna be hard to find something big enough that's easy to move.
You don't say how many birds it needs to accommodate.

Movable and anti-dig don't go together.

Thanks. I’ve been looking at those and they seem like an ok option. was hoping for something with decent wire pre attached.

Thanks. That’s what I’m trying to take the place of, my current netting. I love it, but my predator problem are hawks.

I was looking at the 9x18. I was toying around with building, but really would like to buy something. Burnt out on building. Ha.
