Where about are you moving too? or are you moving, sorry I saw you'd be "coming home" and got confused. That's a huge move to take on yourself! When the truck is in motion you may want to cage the birds individually. Movement in the drivers seat in minimal but the g-forces are much more noticeable farther down vehicles and that unsteady sloshing caused in back could cause a fall or slipped leg tendon in loose chickens. They could very well sit snugly! But if they venture about a lot inside I'd keep and eye on them the 1st leg of the trip just to make sure they're steady on their feet :)

I finally have a new computer. I have to finish setting it up and I have a long ways to go to get used to it. But I am finally back.

I am looking for some one good in construction. Once I get my NEW Camper I can come to who ever I find to help me build "the project is a Coop on wheels". Not a standard tractor coop. It will be designed to 1) hold 6 standard chickens 2) fit on my truck bed, 3) be able to wheel it off the bed using a ramp, return to my truck bed with a wrench. 4) be able to close in all sides so when moving and going throw weather my girls will be safe, and I can control the ventilation so that they will also be safe. 5) built in feeder and water.

I plan on using a pen found at a lot of pet stores. I will need to make a cover for it that I can put on it to protect my girls. When I start my travels I will be taking 4 of them with me. I will have to find homes for the rest. This will be very hard. It may turn out that I will have to raise my girls on the road for them to be happy with that kind of life. There is at lest 2 others that or doing it. One has a flock of 6 Buff Orrington's that free range when they park, always knows where they left their coop.

My goal is to maintain a max of 350 miles a day. Stopping every 3-4 hours to give them time to eat and drink.. Yes I will be keeping everyone posted on my travels and my Chickens. I will also have them on YouTube. If I get enough viewers I will get a check via PayPal from advertisers. They give and estimate of a min of a few dollars up to $100 a month. very few make more then $200.00 a month. that would really help with my travels. Of course I will be coming home ever so often. I am open for suggestion of what to call myself, or my little traveling chicken coop. OH, if anyone has any ideas as to a design, by all means send it to me.

there will be a lot of concessions to keeping them safe, some place will be asking for trouble. Parks in Bear country for one. I think Chickens are high on the menu for bears. So I will have to keep safety in mind. I never want to post a disaster. I will also be starting to look for that perfect dog. They only thing I know is it has to be a female, because my Ernie is a Male. I have faith I will find the right dog, I will not force it. She is out there or will be out there for me, she may be a pup or a full grown dog. I also know when I find her she will protect me and mine. All I have to do is keep my eyes and heart open, and take good care of her for the rest of her life.
