~What do you think of this coop

The only coops I have seen that are movable, and can house 30 chickens, are the hoop style (our local free range egg producer uses them). There is not really much roosting available in the coop, and he moves it to a different location in his pasture every day. I am thinking by portable you mean you just need to be able to drag it somewhere if it becomes necessary, not that you want to move it every day? You can put any coop on wooden sled runners (rather than a foundation or blocks) and drag it if necessary. We've done that with some of our horse shelters so they can be relocated fairly easily using a tractor and drag.

They will sleep in the coop at night. and be outside the rest of the time. We have never had enough snow to make staying in a necessity.

I want it to be moved so that they can be moved once or twice a year to keep the ground nice. I cant do anything about it until they remove the barrier which stops lorries going nearer the plot. So until then its time to get the potatoes chitting (and I am going to grow these potatoes
