Chicken Tractor Plans For 8 Chickens

Description

This mobile chicken tractor is a perfect blend of practicality and rustic charm, providing a versatile and comfortable home for your backyard flock. It features a spacious lower run, enclosed with sturdy wire mesh, where chickens can forage and exercise safely. The upper living quarters include a cozy, sheltered hutch with an attached nesting box, ensuring your chickens have a secure space for roosting and laying eggs.

The design includes a ramp for easy access between the hutch and run, and the entire structure is mounted on large, robust wheels, allowing you to move the coop across your yard with ease. This mobility is not only beneficial for the health of your lawn, preventing overgrazing in one spot, but it also allows your chickens to access fresh patches of grass regularly.

The chicken tractor’s construction features high-quality materials, with a focus on durability and predator resistance. The roof provides ample protection from the elements, while the added overhang ensures the interior remains dry during rainy weather. Conveniently, the nesting box is accessible from the outside, which makes egg collection straightforward and minimizes disturbance to your laying hens.
