The question you might ask, is how long to you want it to last? Raw untreated pine, sitting on the soil, is going to start rotting from the first minute it gets hit with a sprinkler or rain.

If this is going to be your forever mobile coop, you need to go back to the drawing board, unfortunately. Your base needs to be much more robust, and it shouldn't rot, rust, or get eaten by bugs. I'm going to suggest aluminum channel:

$11 for 8 feet. Resists bending against the channel. Very lightweight. Easy to cut. Will never rust. OK, it'll oxidize, but not enough to worry about.

For the wheels, get six of them. One on each corner, and two in the center. These would float over your yard:

or get some swivel plate castors:

The door and the wire are going to be something to think about. Chicken wire is flimsy, lightweight, and cheap. It is hard to make it look professional, because you have to keep it stretched tight all the time. Hardware cloth is a far better product:

PM me if you get as far as the door.

Good luck, buddy. You've got a job ahead of you.
