      Had to look up what a chicken tractor was.

      Your's looks more refined than most of the other ones I saw online. You going to need a tractor tractor to move it? It looks a bit heavy.

            I do believe that is the chicken tractor I've ever seen. That should keep the fox out of the hen house!

              I grew up on a farm, raised chickens too, but that's the first time I ever heard of a "chicken tractor"

                You people are GREAT. I have roled in the floor this morning. When i put the tires on it i added 2 longer handles on the front so me and my wife could move it when the grass would get thin. It is kinda heavy. So i made a steel bracket, so now we just have to lift it on to the back of may riding mower. I am in the new build now for a lighter one. I have laughed all morning. Thank you all for a great Derby Day, and all the comments.

                  Nice tractor 4est. I live about 25 miles from the broiler capital of the world in Gainesville, Georgia. I've seen a zillion chicken coups but never in 62 years seen a chicken tractor nor heard of one. I must have blinked at the wrong time I suppose!
