Portable Chicken House - What Things To View?

By Elliott Berry


Portable coops can be a handy asset to owners with tiny yards, given their portability they can be set up in different areas of the yard to prevent environmental overload in any one place.

Movable coops are typically smaller in scale than standard chicken coops for easy movement. They are not intended for large scale operations, but instead for the yard farmer with one or two hens.

To begin building a coop for your chicken that is conveyable you'll need to keep a watch on 3 things.

Light: You have got to ensure that the coop has enough light. If not, then your chickens will lay fewer eggs.

The Ventilation: You have to ensure that there's a good ventilation system in the movable coop. Why? Due to two things you will need to have a good ventilation system.

1) The heat or cold can't go out which can make your chickens sick.

2) Your chickens will smell their own excreta which is not healthy.

Feeding system: The last thing to watch is the most significant, "The feeding system". You have to come up with a feeding system so your chickens can drink and eat whenever they need.

Also, keep in mind that when you're building a portable chicken coop you create a feeding system that can resist cold and hot days.
