Moving Chickens

[KDrumm]

Hello. We will be moving from KS to NC about a 16 hr drive. I'm wondering if anyone has tips or advice? I only have 3 chickens less than a year. I'm considering loading up the entire coop in to the back of a trailer. Thanks so much for your feedback!

How warm is it? Honestly, I'd just put them in a cardboard box and have them ride with me in a nice, air-conditioned environment. Have a few rest stops for water.

That might work......if it's not too windy, not too cold, not too hot.

Here's bunch of threads abut moving with chickens:

Hello, I am moving 2 adult hens 9 hours away in their coop in the back of my truck. Will they be okay?
