    Small Chicken Tractors that are Goat Climbing Proof?

    I'd like to build a few grow out pen chicken tractors for chicks not ready to integrate to the flock yet, but my area to tractor in is also where the goats are allowed to roam and I have no doubt they'll be attempting to climb on whatever I put out there. Other than electric netting to keep...

    Multi-level Brooder Box?

    Hello, I was just curious if anyone had tried or seen a tiered brooder box to save on horizontal room for the brooder. The way I figure it, you'd probably want to limit them to one floor for the first month or so and then open up the second floor for the second while the chicks finish...
