Look online for plans for a simple chicken ark. I'll TRY to attach the file for the one I'm going to use, but no guarantees it will come through.

PS, nope won't allow pdf's, I've got a text file-trying again-nope no dice there either-try online for chicken arks, moveable chicken coops, and be sure to put plans for a chicken ark, into the google search bar, or you'll get every place selling the expensive ones online

Hello and yes, Here is an easy a inexpensive hen coop. Use PVC pipe, couplings and elbows to make a hoop shaped frame. Use chicken wire attached by wire to your hoops and use tent stakes to hold your coop in place from prevailing winds, etc. This coop can be moved around to fresh grass as need by just one person.
