The Dorset Ranger Ten incorporates all the family-friendly features of the Dorset Ranger Six but is built on a slightly grander scale to realise your dreams of Ten-Hen-Heaven.
The Dorset Ranger is a top-quality chicken coop with all the superb build finish and attention to detail that you expect in a Flyte so Fancy Henhouse.
This coop is just so easy to move around the garden, you will be amazed at how light it is to lift and move. Inside the house are two long perches and lots of space to accommodate up to ten large birds, with the option to use one perch only if accommodating very large birds or only a few birds.
And, when the grass looks greener on the other side of the Run, just up-chooks and move it to pastures new. It’s all to do with fulcrums, masses and moments - but the end result is that you can easily tip up the whole thing and wheel it, with one hand, anywhere you want – easy peasy!
The Run has easy access hatches in the top and pop-hole access at the end of the run. With its slide-back roof on the house, pull-out dirt tray, 2 removable perches, cord-pull portcullis pop-hole door, and detachable nest box, cleaning the Dorset Ranger is as easy as eating an egg.
It is so strong, light to handle, and cleverly designed that you can hang feeders and drinkers inside the run, then when it’s time to move on, just lift the whole darned thing in one go - what could be easier!
