We have finally got our fodder system up and running. It is working great but we still have some things we need to add like a heater for winter, a a/c unit for summer and an auto-water system. We originally were looking at the Fodder Trailers but we could not justify the price on something we could build ourselves.

This is a great idea.... I have thought about it, but I have 300 chickens. Not sure I could keep up, but it would help.
I have a couple of questions:
Could you not make a green house type container to grow them in so you would not have to water so much? or heat? They would stay warmer.
If they trays don't last long, I know they are probably that thin plastic like you get from the green houses when you by flats of plants, could you use plastic totes.... with tops?
I know when I start my plants for the garden I use a top to keep the heat and moisture in...plastic wrap works too. They don't need light till they sprout, right? Why do you have to water them 3-4 times a day? I ask these questions because I don't have that much water available and no way to get it to the garden.
