    I am looking for suggestions for a raised coop design for 3 hens that I can use in the yard and transfer to the deck for winter. We are not able to trudge through all the snow in the winter to care for them and would love to move them for the winter. I was thinking something that is in two pieces , top and bottom with handles. Anyone do this type of thing with their chickens?

    Thanks All!

    We are making a roosting box out of pallets. You could easily piece it together with hinges that would come apart for your winter move. Here's some pics of what my hubby has done midway for our roosting box. [​IMG]
