Hanging out at Kansas City Art Institute
The Chicken Cart
The roof is salvaged metal, the insulation old clothing. I used an old wheel chair to make the carriage it rides on. There are removable window panels to open the structure up to the outside. A plug in heat lamp warms the birds and their food is a mix of scraps and grain.
A work in progress; expect paintings to adorn the outside and a nice hand hold system for pulling. Come spring a pull out fence will be designed and built to create a safe outdoor space for these purdy birdies. The chickens will live in a few spots, moving around Kansas City on a whim.
