RABBIT TRACTOR MODIFICATIONS- BIG IMPROVEMENT 

Your design is sound and faster to build, but I have different preferences. - 2x4 welded wire on the bottom. Don't put the hardware cloth on the bottom if you expect them to eat grass. - hardware cloth on the sides, if you have predator problems. - if you expect predators lathe or fender washers to distribute impact I witnessed a german shepherd get foiled by lathe but it can trap moisture and reduce the life. - chicken wire if you have them in a safer area. - 8'x3' (1.5 sheets of plastic roofing end walls 0.5" within roof area to avoid water damage.) - prefer to have webbing handles on both ends - handtruck or detachable wheels to keep weight down and can be used on multiple tractors - started making wooden feeders for the tractors - (lift high, swing, lower slowly) the high lift keeps more of the grasses standing. - alternately a half move will have greater fodder available. - positive latch to prevent winds from catching the lid (or small kids) - gusseted corners for lid and frames. - panelized construction so parts can be mix and matched, also can be flat packed. - If not in use or out of season, put them up on bricks, this is more important if you've done any sort of joinery at the corners. - I like to use an 1.5x1.5" sticks pine or oak. - My oldest has been in service for five years, I flipped the side panels to allow for another three years in this springs maintenance. - They would last longer if I kept them off the damp ground when not in service Bottomless ones make for good meat duck pens I'm going to have to check out your bee keeping videos.

Mic check is good. I built a rabbit tractor I used 1x1 for sides from tractor supply. I didn't put on wheels thinking about putting them on

Awesome video i started my own hatchery

This is the first time I’ve seen your channel & it looks very interesting, so now I’m a subscriber from Australia 🇦🇺😁

great info with the hardware cloth

Many folks talk about the wire on the floor causing the rabbits to stop eating if they accidently bite the floor wire.. What say you brother?. I'm going to use 2x4" horse panel on the bottom anyhow but I'd like to have a little input from experienced folks with wire floors.

The new mic is awesome! I've been thinking of making a rabbit tractor because I have them in cages and carry them to grass pens when I'm home for turnout but a rabbit tractor would be easier for me and make it so they get more grass time :)

Good sound quality from new mic👍

привет мой друг из России! расскажи мне какие породы ты держишь, ?

Hey Bobby Do you have a rabbit tractoring course? I took your meat rabbits course, but I would really like to see all the possibilities you would need to know about tractoring. Thanks!

Question, if rabbits are foraging on the ground in the tractor, is there a chance of cross contamination of illness from wild rabbits?

Good job!... Just one question: Can't the metal mesh hurt the rabbits when they eat the grass?... (I've seen others with wooden slats for that reason) If you put the roof at a slight angle you can collect a lot of rainwater and store it for use in dry weather. Even water from the roof can go directly into irrigation ditches on the side of the tractor... The irrigation ditches will in turn feed trees (fruit trees, acacias, etc.) which in turn will provide shade and food for the rabbits... (I suggest creatively applying permaculture techniques in rabbit farming) Greetings from Argentina :)
