A-Frame Chicken Tractor Plan

The A-Frame Tractor is a movable coop and run in one structure, with no fixed foundation, sized for 2 to 6 hens. It is built to be dragged or wheeled to fresh ground rather than set once and left.

Because the frame is a triangular A-shape rather than a rectangular box, the dimensioned views in this plan draw the front and side as the actual triangle, not a rectangle standing in for it. Enter your hen count and climate at checkout to scale the roost length, nest box count and ventilation opening.

The download includes a start-here page, a cut list packed onto stock lumber lengths, a panel layout for the sheathing, a generated assembly order, a bill of materials in JSON, and a floor plan SVG.

This plan has not been physically built or field-tested as part of making it; the geometry and material quantities are computed from the framing rules described on the Coop Size Planner page. Need hardware cloth and fasteners? See materials.
