Note: These are the tools and materials I actually use and truly suggest. No more going into the coop for eggs, and if you forget your egg basket or need to transfer a broody hen, just use the milk crate! Nesting Boxes – It uses my self-cleaning, “pre-made” milk crate nesting box design that you can access individually from the outside.

Plus, they’re tall enough so that the chickens can get under the house for shade and aerial predator protection during the day. Wheels – Large, non-pneumatic wheels can’t go flat, and will traverse crazy terrain.Handle – The handle for pulling the ChickShaw is easily removed for easy access and can be used to prop up the roof lid.
