gladstone.uoregon.edu/~nfantasi/Chicken%20Tractors.htmThese are some awfully nice chicken tractors You move these around so your chickens can eat bugs and weeds. This way they aren't stuck inside an immoveable pen like mine are. I have begged for one of these for about two years....!! Elaine

I have a moveable chicken/turkey pen and just love them. The grass gets mowed and the animals get fed all at the same time. We ran 15 turkeys earlier this spring in one them moved them when they grow to big . Then we ran 24 broilers for 10 weeks in early summer in one. We saved so much money on feed it nearly paid for its self this summer. Might even use it as a brooder house for my broody hens next spring. lisa m

I plan to use a couple of prefab green house hoop frames with skids. one for chickens and one for turkeys, roughly 30 birds in each one.
