I am looking for a different option for a cage to put in the run when I integrate my baby chicks. I have one of those cheap wooden cages that is about 3 feet long. It is made to hook onto a coop but I don’t have it hooked on. It is flimsy and falling apart. I’ve used it for a few years now and I think it’s time to upgrade.
I am open to any suggestions. I was thinking about using turkey transport boxes. You know, the orange ones. I think they were called rent a coop or something like that. Just like with my current set up I would of course keep the top covered to keep the rain off and use a mama hen heating pad set up to keep them warm.
I am looking for a cage that will last, is lightweight, and won’t take up too much room in the garage. I think these plastic ones can be broken down when you’re not using them. Has anybody tried this? Did it seem to work? Thanks for any input you may have.
