I live in a rural neighborhood that is not chicken friendly. I have 1.3 acres, about a third of which is my house, another third is not visible from the front of the house. I have no fence, and my dh does not want one. I want a chicken tractor so I can have the girls eat grass as much as possible, and I will move it at least once, maybe twice daily. I will have 6-8 chickens (two of those will be bantams.) Now to the questions:
Does anyone have any insight on a stealth chicken tractor?
Should I build a stationary coop and a separate run or keep them together?
Is it possible to build a low profile (around a 2' high) run? Would the girls be happy?
If I move the coop at least once a day, so I still need the 8 sq feet per bird or can I make do with less?
