so I made this trolley for my kids. We’re done with it now and I was thinking about repurposing it into a chicken coop. It’s on wheels so I can tractor it around the yard.
It’s about 22 in wide 43 In long and 38 inches high.

Not sure what if need to add (roosting spot, build boxes?) or how many it would house. I’m thinking it might be big enough for 2 hens.

Also thought about drilling holes in the bottom to help clean it out.

any advice would be appreciated. Can I make this work?
 
I would remove the trolley and start with just the base. Then build a small coop with roosting bars and a nest box on the base. Then you can move around as you planned. 2 hens sounds right for that size.
