Silly Chicken that looks really great! A bit spendy but we'll see...
We're building a chicken tractor. The bottom of our coop will be off the ground about a foot or two within the enclosed chicken run. I was thinking I'd make provisions for wintertime by adding a tray. The tractor would be parked next to our Wisconsin home and more or less enclosed (with ventilation). So we'd empty the tray when needed in those winter months, clean the grate floor and work the hay added to the ground during those months. And then in the warmer months hopefully most of the poop would fall through and onto the grass. And in a day or two the tractor would be moved along to the next place on the lawn.
Being a total newb, I'd sure appreciate what ever comments some of the experienced peeps have to say about this idea... Thank you Thank you Thank you!
