Chicken Tractor
Here are some pictures of my tractor. It is 4' x 6' and
has one nest box. It is covered over the nest box and
over 1/3rd of the run with metal roofing, which is held
on with wing nuts and can easily be undone and lifted
up. It has shade cloth over the other 2/3rds (to be replaced
with tarp in the winter), which is also "hooked"
on, and can be easily lifted up. It has a cross bar to
attach a hanging waterer to and the feeder will go in
the enclosed area.
It will likely be a bit small for our four chickens (would
be perfect for a trio, I would think)...but our chickens
are frequently ranging in our yard. We only meant to have
two chickens, but you know how that goes...
Anyway, I am trying to figure out how to make it a tad
bigger, yet still moveable.
