    Great concept, but $80 for plans is a little outrageous. Fortunately, I can probably build something very similar without them, but had they been more reasonable, I would have purchased a PDF set.

    Nice job! I built a Chicken Tractor that is very similar to this one. Wish I'd seen this video earlier because I like the siding you used and it would have made a big difference in the weight.

    Fencing holes are very big, weasel/mink/pine martens will get through and they are masters at getting into the coop if the door isn't very secure.

    That seems pretty well thought out. If I ever get me some chickens I might try to build or buy something like that. Although I think I would like to figure a way to make the cleaning even easier. I like the concept and am impressed at the attention to detail. The vinyl floor for example. That sounds like a nice little detail. So does the ramp that doubles as a door.I also like that the ramp has steps on it.

    The scoop would also be great for pheasant, quail Etc even rabbits, although you would have to put wire on the bottom of it for rabbits.

    Save money by getting rid of that stainless steel axle. Just run the appropriate size bolt through the corners and the wheels. 4 to 6 inches I'd imagine. Maybe add a corner wedge if you want more strength.... just sayin

    Question and comment:
    How do you keep predators from burrowing under your tractor/coop?
    I think the squared off perches are uncomfortable for the chickens.

    • @lukerogerss
      @lukerogerss  5 років тому +1

      I’ve never had a problem with anything digging under, and my customers have never told me about anything of that nature either. I tend to believe that wild animals don’t want to be caged up in a confined space so they stay away from that. The square roost doesn’t effect them at all. They love the coop.

    • @maxe381
      @maxe381 5 років тому

      Chickens don’t usually grip where they perch like you would imagine smaller pet birds doing. That’s why the square perch is fine, I used a 2 x 3 or 4, or you can use a variety of natural branches too. Every area has different predators. My chickens roam my yard freely all day. The most I have to worry about is hawks or buzzards, but the tree in my yard provides some coverage and my rooster does a great job of alerting the hens to danger

  • @MrSugarlink

    design is good.... will it easy while pulling the tractor if... the breadth of wheels or distance between two wheels are increased for proper balance while pulling the whole cart

    • @lukerogerss

      The balance is not an issue on these coops, it is made sturdy and wide enough so that is not an issue.

    • @lukerogerss
      @lukerogerss  7 років тому

      If the chickens are raised in this coop, they will walk with it while you are pulling it. You don't pull the coop that fast, so generally there is no need to worry about killing a chicken.

I had 24 in the same area and I dealt with feather pluckers, aggression and they stripped the ground down within 2 months... I understand having to contain them, but realistically, you have to keep them happy, and occupied, mentally.

    • @marienamer
      @marienamer 2 роки тому +2

      Because the chickens will easily eat the grass and dig up the lawn as well as leaving lots of droppings. By moving to another space you have fresh food and a fertilized area with time to recover.
