3 Reasons For Choosing A Portable Chicken Coop

By George Fowler

Would you like to be someone who each morning gets up goes into the garden and collects some eggs that your chickens have just laid? If you are and have no idea what it takes to keep chickens then starting with a small flock of 2 to 4 hens is something worth considering. The best option for keeping such a small flock of birds in the garden is to purchase a good quality portable chicken coop.

As you will soon find out there are a number of advantages to be had from getting this type of coop for your garden no matter how large or small it is. In this article we look at some of the reasons why when you are thinking of keeping hens in your garden you should consider buying a portable chicken coop.

Reason 1 - These types of coops will cause far less damage to the ground in your garden unlike the static types do. This is because you can move the unit around on a regular basis ensuring that the ground underneath won't be damaged too much by the hens as they peck and claw at it looking for tasty things to eat.

Reason 2 - Because these are easy to move around the garden at night to provide more protection for your chickens from predators you can move it inside. So if you have enough space in a shed or garage you can place the coop in there at night.

Reason 3 - When it comes to cleaning out the coop you will find it a lot easier to do than if you chose to install a coop that is in a fixed location. All you need to do to clean up the area where the coop has been is to move it to a new location and then several minutes later you will have cleaned up the area where they were previously. - 29955
