Welcome

Good Day. I’m Douglas from McCallum’s Chicken Coops. I’m here to be your guide and show you the wonderful things that you can do in your very own yard. If you think that raising chickens is a lot of work and mess then you have not been fortunate enough to see one of our ‘chicken tractors’ in action.

In fact our mobile chook pens take all the work out of raising chickens – no cleaning, no work and no mess. The floorless coops ensure that the poop falls exactly where you want it – onto the grass or garden bed. In fact, other than checking for eggs and providing water and food, there is absolutely no work to do at all.

We take all the stress out of having chickens – you provide your birds with a clean, safe, pest-free habitat and in return you receive wonderful wholesome eggs with a rich dark yellow yolk courtesy of the high level of fresh vegetation in their diet.

And best of all this can happen now, all chicken tractors and chicken coops in our range are held in stock and can be shipped within 24 hours of your order. You can have chickens in your yard this weekend!

IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO READ THE FINE PRINT FIRST, THEN READ ON. OTHERWISE FEEL FREE TO BROWSE OUR WEBSITE FIRST AND COME BACK TO READ THIS INFORMATION LATER.

Further information - not only about our chicken coops and tractors, but also information on how to order, details about the delivery process and other information - specifically those questions I get asked about our products from time to time.

Firstly pricing - you will find the prices of all of our products by going to the "Online Store". All of our chicken tractors and chicken coops are itemised in this area. The reason that we don't have prices on every page is that if we need to change the pricing for whatever reason, it is easier to change the price of a chicken coop by changing it once in the online shop area of the website rather than editting the entire website. So don't be afraid - go to the Online Store and process an order to see how much it costs. Nothing is final until you pay and there are no traps to try and make you purchase unless you want to! It is fair to say here that the price of our smallest chicken coop is $499, and our biggest chicken tractor is $1299. A fox floor costs extra and freight depends on where you live.

Secondly, chooks. I don't supply them and I don't know who your local poultry breeder is. When I need chooks I buy them from Barter and Sons Hatchery in Luddenham (West Sydney), and I can recommend them but if you live in Adelaide or Wagga Wagga then I have no idea where to get chickens from - Sorry!

Thirdly, Delivery. Our chook sheds are BIG. They are not designed to be put in a shopping trolley and pushed to the car. Our smallest chicken coop weighs at least 55kgs, and the biggest chicken tractor is just over 150kgs. Because of this the only logical way to transport our chicken coops is by general freight, not door-to-door couriers and not Australia Post. Therefore we need to send our chicken coops to a location which has a forklift so it can be unloaded from the truck. Our normal course of business is to send the chicken coops to one of the depots listed above. (Click on your state on the map of Australia at the top of the page for more information). If the depots which we use are in inconvenient locations for you, and you don't mind paying extra we can deliver it to ANY location in Australia as long as the location has a forklift.

And finally, why do I call them Chicken Tractors? Well, I just dont know - thats what everyone calls a mobile chicken coop for some reason. It looks like the term originates from the USA where they also call them 'chicken arks', but if you ask me calling them chicken tractors is just fine and dandy. I know what I mean anyway.
