    Logical size for your terrain. I love that feeder trick to help keep them safe when moving the tractor. Very cool! Please give us a video when you do the butchering and processing of the birds.

      Thank you! We will definitely video the butchering and try to edit out the most unsavory parts. But there will be a video!

    Thanks for sharing how you built that chicken tractor. That is the type we are considering on building as well. So glad to see that your ducks are well. Keep up the great job! :)

    My experiences with Cornish cross is that they don’t eat enough grass to make a difference. The only reason I moved them daily was because they would kill the grass with the foot traffic and poop if you left them in one spot for more than a day. The last two weeks of their happy little lives I had to move them twice a day.
    But they are great for preparing a garden spot. Their poop will burn the grass and weeds up and leave behind plenty of nitrogen for your plants

    Hi nice system, is it worth putting a net underneath too? In your opinion? Because in my area in Sardinia it's full of predators

    Are you still satisfied with the tractors. This is exactly what I had in mind even thought about making one just for a few laying hens as well to rotate in the garden when needed

    • @LittleMountainLife
      @LittleMountainLife  3 года назад +1

      Yes they are still sturdy and strong but light enough to easily move.

    does nothing try to dig underneath and get in?

    • @LittleMountainLife
      @LittleMountainLife  4 года назад

      No because we have an electric fence around the perimeter of that area and our beagle is always around to scare off would be predators.

    Good Job how long does it take for the grass to grow back so you can move chickens back on it?

      I personally wouldn’t pass over the same spot within the same 6 month period.

    We built a small "chicken tractor" for our small dogs to let them be outside during the parts of the day when we are not home and to keep them safe from predators like coyotes and bobcats. Then when we come home from work we let them out and take them back inside the house.

      @LittleMountainLife  Год назад

      Normal rain is fine but I’d make sure the tractor isn’t in a low spot with standing water in especially bad storms.
