Here is a link to some of the materials I used to make my tractor:
In this video I cover the features of my newest mobile chicken tractor. I built it to keep my egg laying hens safe from the bobcats, raccoons, foxes, coyotes, possums, and skunks that visit us every night. I also have designed a pvc chicken feed tower to keep them fat and happy. Free ranging chickens produces higher quality eggs, meat, and happier chickens.
chicken tractors have been made popular by people like joel salatin and others. While you can buy a static chicken homes like a tractor supply chicken coop a mobile chicken coop is even better. chicken tractor design is important for Building The Ultimate Hen House For My Growing Family
pastured poultry is the way to go

As many hawks as we have here in Central Kentucky, I can't believe they have never taken one of our hens. I saw one scoping them out once, and I sent the kids out there to play. Knock on wood.

@alexlongfield2113 Год назад

New to chickens and wanted a two part system. Have my own ideas but THIS is what I've been looking to bounce my ideas of off. Love the tunnel ramp. Will check out 2.0.

@WineberryHill Год назад

Glad I could help! Feel free to ask questions. And keep me posted on your progress.

@alexlongfield2113 Год назад

@@WineberryHill Thanks! I do have a question. I live in a cold winter climate and noticed your coop is insulated. How do you balance warmth and winter ventilation to ensure there are no moisture/frostbite issues? Thanks.

@WineberryHill Год назад

Partially the shape of the roof, encourages air movement from the low eve to the high eve.. The eves can be opened or blocked (although not airtight).

@RobinLauer Год назад

So when you move the cage away from the coop, they have no access to the nesting boxes.

@WineberryHill Год назад

Nor do they need it. I usually move them out to pasture in the morning after they have laid. In the rare occasion where someone missed their opportunity to lay...they just lay it on the ground in the tractor, which I then pick up when I'm changing their location or parking them for the night.

@plasticdadaii8225 Год назад

How many birds do you have and how often do you have to move it throughout the day? In another life I had birds and I extended their run and entirely desertified it in two weeks.

@WineberryHill Год назад

6 hens, I move them once or twice a day.

@carolleenkelmann4751 Год назад

How heavy is that 'Oh-La-La' and how are the wheels attached?

@WineberryHill Год назад

Not too heavy, check out the updated video where I show how the wheel attach: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-jfDGWn-J8ZY.html

Do you have building plans for the tractor

@WineberryHill 2 года назад

I could make some plans available. What sort of information would you like to have?

@blackphoenix3249 Год назад

Can you post the feeder🙏🏽

@elainedunham Год назад

How do you make the tractor part? I’ll try to do it if I can see it done?

Greetings from Oregon, Lathe! Sub’d to the channel. Would love to come visit one day. Likewise if you guys are ever on the west coast.

@WineberryHill 2 года назад

Sounds good!

@SJ-gj7mx 2 года назад

Also would you please laborate a bit more on the skirting? and how it can stop the predators getting in?

@WineberryHill 2 года назад

I used a standard welded wire fencing. That’s screwed to the side of the tractor and then bent out so that it is parallel to the ground. It just prevents predators from getting in the tiny little area between the bottom of the tractor and the hardware cloth that is attached to the ground when the tractor is parked at night.

@SJ-gj7mx 2 года назад

@@WineberryHill Thanks, my question is ....the gap... there will be still a bit of gap between that piece of wire mesh that is bent( skirting) and the mesh that is on the ground

@WineberryHill 2 года назад

The predators don't seem to understand which direction the gap occurs. They know the cattle wire fencing isn't something they can bend or chew through...so they don't try squeezing under it. They try almost every night....

@SJ-gj7mx 2 года назад

@@WineberryHill Thank you, Exactly how long is the wire fencing...I mean from the bottom of the wood how long is the amount of the bent wire ( skirting) and how long is the width of the hardware cloth on the floor.....

@WineberryHill 2 года назад

About 6"

@SJ-gj7mx 2 года назад

May I ask how you fitted the wheels? What did you put in the middle of the wheels?

@WineberryHill 2 года назад

I use really long heavy carriage bolts

@SJ-gj7mx 2 года назад

@@WineberryHill Thank you. Did you use any washers? so it is the wheel, then the washer then the wood, then another washer and then the nut? Is that right?
