Response to little chicken tractor

I really like the hen house I built for the Sept/Oct 1998 issue. The main reason I move it every day is the kids go bare foot all summer so only a thin layer of poop is in one spot and you can't tell where it was the day before. I have the hens trained to go inside at night and I just close the house door so they are locked in and safe from predators. Over the winter Jd just put it out behind the garage and wrapped the bottom half of the chiken wire with plastic for a wind break and the hens did just fine.
