Features of the Mini

EZ-lift System
With its unique hinged design, the Egg Cart’n Mini raises onto two wheels and moves effortlessly like a wheelbarrow. Foam-filled tires ensure you’ll never have a flat.
Ramp and Flooring
You can raise the ramp for protection from night predators, lowered for grazing access, and removed for cleaning. The perforated floor allows for easy cleaning of this coop.
Nest Box
The round opening on the nest box encourages the hens to spend just the necessary time nesting, but no more.
Collection Door
Your delicious mouth-watering natural and healthy eggs are just a sliding door away!
Roost
The included roost makes your chickens feel comfortable and at home, even in a small enclosure.
Sliding Gate

Frequently Asked Questions
How do you calculate shipping prices?
Customers pay the actual price of shipping which is calculated at checkout.
How often do you recommend cleaning the coop?
The Egg Cart’n includes a perforated floor that cuts down the number of times cleaning is needed. However, every month or two, you may need to scrape out residual droppings that have built up over time. It is also essential to clean and disinfect the tractor between flocks. You can easily do this with a hose and brush.
Does the Egg Cart’n work for any animals besides chickens?
Yes. People have used the Egg Cart’n for rabbits and puppies, and it would probably work for other small animals.
Is there danger of the wind tipping the Egg Cart’n over?
High winds could tip the Egg Cart’n over, but typical winds are not a problem. We live on the plains of Kansas, where there is plenty of wind, and we have had no issues with the wind causing damage to our Egg Cart’n.
What is the white material used for the panels, skirting, and doors?
We’ve specially-selected 10-millimeter corrugated plastic for a sturdy and lightweight material, including a UV inhibitor to retard breakdown in sunlight.
