Build a tripod however big out of what ever you want or if you have a lot of trees use tree branches . Use a cast net and pull it up it will cause a netted in area how ever big the net is and can be moved around daily and cast nets start at 20 dollars idk if it will work just a idea
 
I built a tractor. Its like a opened box turned upside down, that you can ove around the yard. We bought 2x3 8 ft long, cut in half to make a 4x8 ft box w/ wheels. We put piviting ones on the side w/ a lid on it. On one end we put a door, the other we made a lid. We covered it w/ 1x1 netting in plastic for us. You could use Chicken wire. We put a handle of a shovel, flattened the end down, drilled a hole in it and connected it to a hinge to a garage door loosely,so it could pivit. We then connected it to the lid side so we could pull it like a wagon.

You need to forget about the lattice. It's there from this past winter. Hubby place it on top of the unit to keep 2 bails of hay this past winter nest to our coop. It it not part of the tractor's use.

I've also seen this style w/ the coop on one end, at the top part made w/ 2x4's. We thought doing it this way got the girls around the yard, we could control the poop placement, so we could hose it down. We're going to add a nesting box on the side w/ the water dish to add to their comfort! And they do love it. You should see them do their cute walk, shaking their derriere to get it!
 
This was more about my idea then your creation but its nice a lot of work tho trying to find cheap less work alternatives so I thought the net might work or those portable pens they have made of wire and cloth netting they have those for other things as well little weight on the sides and its all the Same
