How many meaties in an 8 x 8 x 2 chicken tractor?

I raise 25 Cornish X each summer in a 8x10 coop. 8x8 should be fine as you will most likely loose a few over the course of 8-10 weeks. For a good fat bird you don't really want them to move around, just to eat, sleep and poop. Make sure there is good ventilation in the tractor.

I would use hardware cloth and not chicken wire, will help keep critters out, the chicken wire is not strong enough, neighbor lost some meaties to racoons last summer, i did not have any critter issues, my sides are hardware cloth, a little more expensive, but cheap insurance...

 

Yes no chicken wire. Hardware cloth is about twice as much but nothing can reach through and grab them. It is Much stronger as well.
