Pasture Raised Hen Tractors

[anthonyjames]

Hi all,

Since expanding my flock I am in the process of bulding or creating new moveabel pasture house for my hens. I was hoping to see or get some ideas from others out there that have their hens on pasture.

My flock is up to 250 hens. So looking for something to house them for the night but let them run within the netting during the day.

Can everyone out there throw out some ideas or images please?

Thanks

I don't have any plans for it, but I wanted to use a hay wagon (use the gear, but cut a longer pipe for in between the wheels so you can have any length you need). I was going to make mine about 20' by 10'. But, I can't seem to get my hands on cheap, used wagon gear.

There is also an eBay auction close to what I mean....
