Tractor Inspired by Drawing Here!

This tractor was inspired by the one on your site in Google Sketchup.  It is home to 5 bantam hens (1 Leghorn, 2 Silver-Spangled Hamburg, 2 Polish).  We used skis as runners & to keep the wood off the wet ground (Seattle area), but will probably add wheels since it's heavier than we thought it would be.  We added a cross-piece 3' from the end of the run so we could have a hinged lid & hang feeders if needed (we currently have feed & water on the sides so we can refill with out opening the run).  All but the the hardware cloth & a couple of 2" x 2" for the frame were recycled or free materials.

I LOVE IT! It looks really great- and the use of free/recycled materials is a plus. Contrary to popular belief, you can have a great looking coop for very little money.

I'm impressed that you built that from the single image we posted. Well done.

To help others that may be trying to do something similar, I finally uploaded our google sketchup chicken tractor to the 3D warehouse.
