Some customers say that the best feature of our chicken tractors is what it does for the soil – even above chicken health and egg nutrition. The chicken droppings revitalize the soil health and promote the growth of healthy microbes.

	Aluminum: Naturally corrosion resistant to make a coop that will last a lifetime. We use T5 & T6 aluminum so ensure you get value and structural integrity.
	TIG Welding: This method allows for a precise weld, with the heat and material being controlled by the welder for a lasting bond. TIG welding is an art that few master – it is on full display on an Alumi-Coop!
	Shelter-Rite Covers: Manufactured with American-made marine-grade vinyl, each cover is precision cut by a CNC machine, hand sewn with nylon thread, and finished with stainless steel grommets. These covers fit snugly and shed water like a duck!
	Netting: Our netting is made in the USA to exacting specifications. We use 2.5 x 2.5cm 1.6mm thick steel netting that is galvanized after welding to prevent corrosion. Our custom roll formers flatten the netting, making it neat and flat.
	Wheel System: The Alpha-Lite wheel system uses leverage to raise the coop. This makes movement easier as does the extra large solid wheels (no flat tyres here!).

What about foxes attacking mobile chicken coops?

The coops are a strong defense against foxes and a coops frequent movement disrupts the fox instinct to plan an attack days in advance. In fact, we have not yet had one customer report a fox accessed their Alumi Coop across Australia. However, if you have a strong concern about foxes you can add our Pred-X hotwire kit to your coop. This kit attaches to your coop to run an adjustable height hotwire around the base of the coop. Check out our Pred-X hotwire kits here.
