Its 6'x12'
The coop part is 4'x6'
This is what I've done so far.

I'm jealous, I just finished my 6X8 tractor today, and I already want a bigger one.

Lookin' good! seems sturdy and lightweight. Just what you want in a tractor.

Yep, a pressure treated frame and lots of screws.
I'm turning the old riding mower in to a "mini yard tractor" to pull it with.

I got the seams caulked and the run gate done today.

 

[BrackenFarms]

how many do you plan on putting in that???

 

[danielbrown]

I put the wire on the vents, top of the run, and roof today.

Only thing left to do is install popdoor, paint, finish putting nthe wire on the run.
Then install chickens.

Here's the future residence of the tractor.

Totally awesome! I do love a handy tractor. So nice to have something you can move around. Then again, think of all the thick grass we will be mowing!
