The number one worst ports coop design... Joel salatin started this basic idea and there are way more negatives then positives. John suscivich has a far superior design. Its too hard to harvest them with low roof, its too hard to get in them to get dead ones, you can't see them when your moving it so you will at some point run some over
Looks like a solid design that anyone can make, that will not break the bank. Can easily take the lid off to reach them, and both designs can cause running over. We made ours liked this with wood and bird netting instead of pvc and metal
This isn't Joel's design...and if you wanna move around a 800lb mobile coop twice per day...be my guest. Sorry...but I've got a neighbor who keeps building these giant monstrosities and he can't move them without an ATV/UTV or tractor. It's too darn heavy my freind...and it's a gaint sail if you build it out of lighter material. I think they are really cool looking....but I don't think they're the best option. I'll do a comparison vid soon. Now....Joel's tractors are heavier than mine also....about 2 times the weight. Mine is so light that you can lift it with one hand and pick out a dead chick if needed. I also don't deserve to be put down my friend.....this is how I've raised my meat birds for nearly 5 years and it's worked great. Don't knock it until you try it...this isn't joel's design...this is my take on joel's design and it works great.....when a 120 lb woman can move it with one hand...that speaks volumes
exactly....doesn't take a rocket scientist to build a little sliding coop....this fella has clearly never moved a Suscivich coop by him/herself....they are way way too heavy!
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
This is an EXTREMELY cost effective and easy way to move around on pasture! ❤❤❤❤@@StoneyRidgeFarmer
Just imagine what the world would be like if everyone did the exact same concept of another person. Kudos Josh, can’t wait to see the new chicken coop
Those are Praying Mantis Egg Cases. Thank you for always giving us the best Chicken education videos!
It's so fun raising your own chicks. I'm getting ready to introduce the newbies to the big girls soon. Great chicken tractor. Love your homestead and way about life. You give me a little hope that there is still good people in this world ❤ Btw, I always enjoy the intro to your videos😊
Awesome as always.Thanks for sharing and taking us along
Morning Josh chicks looking good have fun growing them up
I KNOW!! praying Mantis nest( pods?) its a bundle of awesomeness
yeah, DNR officer guy told me people do the fill, or chop, or build *regs, get caught and pay the fine. I was hot to trot about your pvc meat tractor, once. Really excited with my Dad. I planned on using old well drill pipes (too thick). But then I started egg layers, and found out
I'm not the sort. City boy. It's really cool Josh.
Love that design with the PVC pipe. Besides weight, one potential advantage vs wood is that PVC is rot proof.
It's a piece of crap plastic breaks
Love the chicken tractor design Josh. Those look to be preying mantis egg cases.
Thank you for your videos Josh. I’m currently in the process of getting farm assessed in NJ for tree and agricultural. Your videos have helped me along the way. I have my first batch of meat birds coming the end of this month. As a brother Veteran though, I have to say Go Navy! 😂😂
That also looks like a Praying Mantis egg sack.
shew...my brother beware of the "free programs" that are pawned off to ya....go to the Ag office and they'll have you sign up for every "free" program under the sun to get their numbers up....only to be denied over and over again...year after year...ask me how I know!
Preying mantis eggs. Love your videos. Keep it real Brother
I just put mine out today❤
Grass is going to be really green with all that chicken 🐓 fertilizer ❤😊😮great work Josh 👍
Praying mantis egg sac. Love the chicken tractor.
Good morning josh hope you and yours are doing good 👍
Good Morning David! Buddy....I'm tired lol....been going going going for the last few weeks!
Thanks Josh, looking forward to the mobile chicken house.
Thanks for saving those preying mantis eggs!
Mantis Eggs? If so super cool
Hey Josh thank you for the video woo 👍
Cool ideal thanks Josh from. Sc
Excellent!
Hi 👋
Prying Mantis egg sacks is what you’re putting in your garden.. I also purchase bags of lady bugs to help with garden pests
I actually designed an award-winning chicken tractor easy to build in my play lists
Wow. That is Beautiful. I’m building one of those.
Mantis eggs, or just the shell from it. I want a STRF hat. 😂
Rock a doodle doo lol cheers buddy thanks Ricky 🎸🙏👩🏻🦼🇺🇸💥🐓🤠
Awesome video
Mantis egg sacks. Good stuff
Praying Mantis cocoons! Cool bug!
The thing's on the sticks are praying mantis eggs pods!
I made one with pallets, buggy wheels, and tarp. Only cost was fence wire. The chicken chariot.
I like your pvc idea better. But cost is a problem. I could use sections maybe.
Yep, I'm doing this. Not only raising meat birds and egg layers, but growing half their food. All on an 80x125. Cow peas, cover drops including daikon radish, vetch, clover, oats, barley, sunflower and more. I live in the subs and we have a 4 chicken limit. I have 30 including 10 meat birds. These 'laws' or 'city ordinances' are unlawful because they are unconstitutional. Most of the time it's not a neighbor behind them, it's a lobby for grocery stores. Listen for dogs in your neighborhood at all hours and ask yourself why they aren't banned, but roosters are.
AGREED!!! 🎯🎯🎯🎯
Those are Praying Mantis egg cases! My favorite insect.
Where did you get the large feeder. Didn’t see it on the Amazon list.
Feed them give them ice water! Those are ground cherry tomatoes! haha Minnesota boy!
I would love to see how you remove these poultry when they are older and ready to change tractor and processing day. I have not found an easy way. Please share!!!
Great 👌
Praying Mantis Nest, or cocoon, anyway it's where they lay their eggs. Is that Schedule 40 PVC pipe or drainage pipe? Wondering what pulling it on the gravel does to the bottom side? If it's wearing any, I guess a pan could take another pipe, split it, and make runners out of it.

Tomitios!
Pray mantis egg cocoons, My brother brought one in the house when we were kids, my mother put it in the buffet draw and forgot about it. One day when she opened the draw, there were a mess of babies in there. LOL. she just scooped them up with her hand and put them outside. Not much bothered mom, she did raise 8 of us. LOL
Praying mantis eggs. Keep up the great work.
WooooooooHeeeeeeeeeeHeeeeeeeeeeee!!!Alright!!!!!🤗 8:54
Those are praying mantis pods.
I put one in my uncles underwear drawer once, my aunt about had a heart attack when she saw hundreds of mantis babies. 😂😮😅
I just told my pittbull they were her babies. Nothing messed with them. Lol
Praying mantic eggs great bug eaters. Good morning.
What is your typical feed conversion when you put them on pasture? I've heard Joel Salan say it reduces feed consumption by up to 80%.
no way.....maybe on layers but not meat birds
@StoneyRidgeFarmer have you determined your feed consumption per pound for meat birds on pasture?
Thank you. I appreciate the info

Do your meat chickens sleep in the pvc coop ?
yes absolutely
You asked us to guess what you had. We do not have anything like that here in the NW but I imagine that may be what a praying mantis egg. Am I right?
Preying Mantis cluster.
I've been wanting to get some chick's myself for pur small yard like this. I might need ti try this
Prey mantis eggs
Praying Mantis eggs. When they hatch they will be everywhere. 😂
Do broilers lay eggs? Probably stupid question, but curious.. 🤔
takes about 4-7 months for hens to start laying. Broilers are processed at 8-12 weeks of age and have a tough time surviving much past 14 weeks because they grow so large
Isn't the cost of the PVC more than cost of wood? I realize that there are two different types of PVC but at my local rural King it was pretty expensive
go to lowes...the PVC wont rot, rust or fall apart...you are buying a lightweight mobile coop that's easy to move...v/s a wooden heavy structure that will fall apart in 3 seasons my friend

Was just talking with the wife about doing meat birds! 🎉
getr done buddy!
How many birds do you lose if any?
How old were your birds that you put in the tractor
here's the guage....when they start jumping out of the brooder...it's time to go outside..if the weather is above 50 degrees at night
Them be some praying mantis egg case called an ootheca. The plural is oothecae.
Those are preying mantis egg sacs.
Stoney.. you ment, "legal." -"what is legal is not lawful, and what is lawful is not legal." & "legal, is permission to do what is already lawful."
Praying Mantis eggs!
Save them all
Some kind of larvae 🐛 can’t remember dang it!!
Mantis sacks
What do you use to attach the chicken wire to the pvc pipe?
screws with large washers
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer thanks!

Praying mantis!! I believe
Chicken shit all over the yard haha
yep...and no fertilizer for the lawn also
If it not an praying mantis
It could be a spider egg sack , then a wasp comes along and lay an egg and it eats all the spiders eggs!!
Yea, but I want to raise turkeys.
My 7yo says it's a silk moth cacoon?
nope...not a cacoon...keep at it...Hint....it's an egg sack for a particular beneficial insect
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer is it the orb weaver spider?
@StoneyRidgeFarmer I found something similar today and I believe it's a praying mantis egg sack!!!!

The chickens cook under that steel roof close to the birds it's I humane
yep....most folks who've never raised a chicken will say this.. I assure you this coop is open on all sides, gets a nice breeze and comparing the height of a chicken to the height of a human....this would be a barn with a 20 ft roof...it's for shade, and it doesn't produce heat. Galvanized metal reflects heat and the temps remain about 80-85 degrees in the hot summer depending on outside temps. Chickens are tropical birds fyi my friend
I raise 10000 boiler breeder chickens I know how sensitive they can be
