If you have the time, space, and energy you could move it everyday I try to move my chicken tractors everyday except tonight.. got too dark before I could get out there lol. Ive had ducks but man do they make a mess and stink a lot

How strong is the build? They might be concerned of it falling apart or collapsing. Some of these coops aren't built to be moved a lot. Maybe you might want to attach some bicycle tires to it or something so it's easier to move, without too much strain.

If it's sturdy and can handle constant moving then go for it.

I did that with a prefab rabbit hutch i had, framed it out with 2x4s and put 2 bike tires on the end, made a nice easy chicken tractor I used for a few years

How wonderful! I hope to someday own a chicken tractor that has bicycle tires. But currently, my coop isn't going nowhere, at least not without the help of a bulldozer.

I sold that one and built 5 new ones with smaller inflatable tires, they worked well until they deflated over time lol I really need to air them up

Years ago we had some coops we moved around with our tractor. Now they have been all put in permanent places. Good luck...
