hello all i have recently moved to the country where i can start keeping chikens.i joined this site a few weeks ago and it has sparked more of an intrest in the subject.and after doing some research ive decided to go ahead and do it while ,while i am in the country and not the city.so i,ve started to build a coop or tractor,anywho something i can keep the chickens in.My job does real good just to pay the bills,let alone come up with what seems to be a massive amount of scratch to build with.But however i do get other benefits,like scrap wood.I have gathered some pallets,some 5/8 moisture composite cut to a wide range of sizes.What i have on hand is some scrap lumber treated,and untreated,a few wooden fence posts,chainlink fence,and all trees i need.I sketched out what I thought I wanted it to look like,and come up with a plan.I knew that I wanted #1 a safe house from weather and preditors,a moveable house,easy clean,and easy maintain.well it will take a little while to complete,but I have been working on it little by little.Now I am doing research on particular breeds that will suit my needs.Looking at Plymoth Rock and Dominique...What yall think?
