What a cool idea. I think that's the best chicken tractor ever. It def would be predator proof with hardware cloth on it. Great find !!
Glad to hear to hear you thawed up some there. I love the sleeping hens. My girls also love sun bathsIts a January thaw, 35F and sunny! lucky me, due to a fluke I'm home from work today. Did a little coop cleaning - put fresh hay down. Found a nest of 8 eggs, looks like two more pullets have been laying in it. Wonder who?
Flock was busy scratching in the hay under the trailer and in the sun porch - had 6 chickens crowded in there, tons of dustbathing going on everywhere....opened the coop door to let the sun in and it didn't take long:
The front two are hatchery girls from the family that didn't want to keep their chicks this winter. The middle one is a mutt hatch from my broody last spring, and so is the one in the back. All sleeping in the sun.
