Hi friends!
These meat birds are growing so fast! We haven't lost one yet, they're good and healthy. In fact they're growing so fast, it's already time to move them from their chick brooder that we built, into our homemade PVC pipe chicken tractor!
The chicks are always so excited to get outside into the grass where they can eat bugs, flowers and grass which of course is their natural diet! These chicks were hatched in a hatchery, so they've never seen grass! They immediately start scratching around, chasing bugs & pecking around. They're happy lil chicks that's for sure.
Raising meat birds in a tractor makes things so much easier! Let me tell you something, in case you didn't know...meat birds POOP a lot. In order to raise them in a clean, healthy environment...you'd have to clean out their coop at least every couple of days! I'm not kidding, it's gross. A chicken tractor eliminates this altogether.
There is no cleaning involved. You simply go out every couple of days and move the tractor to a new spot! And you're fertilizing your grass while you're at it. In addition to the feed that you supply them as a supplement, your meat birds will be of the best quality for your kitchen table as they're getting an abundance of their natural diet every day with grass, flowers and bugs!
In today's video I'll show you our homemade chicken tractor that we built out of PVC pipe which makes it a very light design and super easy to move. It's nothing fancy, but boy does it get the job done right.
