So how many of y'all have started a small flock of chickens ? Check your local codes, you might be surprised how many areas allow chickens!
Here is my endeavor, I wanted a way to control garden pests, not spill poisons on my soil, teach my children on ways to feed them selves, and possibly make some money in the process. This tractor was designed to move up and down to rows between the plants, mowing the grass..and er....fertilizing as they go
So...we built a chicken tractor for our urban garden!
We are in a small town (25,000 pop.) and generally nice area of Texas. So, here is our venture!
