A Frame Chicken Tractor

[Kodiak]

Thinking about building an A frame chicken tractor and im looking for ideas, plans, drawings, a website etc.. Im looking to build one big enough to hold around 8 birds, any input would be greatly appreciated.

I dont have plans but mine has a 2x4 base with a nesting box frame on the back. Main tractor is made from 3/4" PVC & hardware cloth. It also has two old lawn mower wheels to move it around. I can also put a tarp over it for shade .

I dont think that chickens could power a tractor. It would take way too many. Lol


But for real,

Maybe an A-Frame solid roof that is hinged at the top on both sides and can be lifted and propped open for light, but the sides of the roof create an overhang for the chickens.

Thanks guys, I have a few ideas in my head so we'll see what happens when I put my limited building skills to use :)

Craigslist has a few listed for sale or build to specs...
