I am on the planning stages on building a large egg mobile on a trailer and wondering how many layers I can intensive graze on 8 acres of pasture. Possibly another 8 wooded acres once we get it fenced in.
I am in fl and we manage our pastures so we have grass all year. We have a 1/2 acre garden so always have lots of extra scraps from the garden.
We want to rotate them around the property every few days behind our cows so they can spread the manure and eat fly population down.
We personally consume about 5 dozen give or take between our family weekly and what to sell extra to pay for the chickens feed and their fencing eventually. What amount do you think is feasible on the 100 acres without destroying the property?
