The Chicken Tractor

I built a simple Chicken Tractor to house my chicks until they are large enough to safely free range.  This portable coop provides protection from predators and the elements while allowing the birds to graze on fresh grass and bugs daily.  And they leave behind mowed grass and plenty of fertilizer!  I use the two-wheeler to lift the front end slightly and roll the coop forward to fresh fodder daily.

I don’t see how eggs are easily able to be collected. Love the idea, though.
