enthusiast, presents the construction steps of his

project will serve as a permaculture tool by making use
of the chickens’ work in the garden. Additionally, a
repurposed car shelter frame is used in the unique

rows as a natural method of pest control. |

you already have hens in your coop and want to raise
them in your backyard more effectively?
A
mobile chicken coop also known as a chicken tractor or
chicken ark might be just what you need! This portable
coop on wheels allows your chickens to graze on fresh
grass, helping to keep your lawn trimmed while also
acting as a natural form of pest control. Chickens love
eating insects and your garden will thank you!
Looking for detailed plans and designs for building your
own chicken tractor? You're in the right place. These
movable coops, typically built without a floor, are key
tools in permaculture practices.

your chickens do the work for you! |
