RE: Building a new chicken tractor

in Homesteading2 years ago

We started out with a wheeled chicken tractor, but even with a fairly level area it can get quite awkward to move around and we'd just end up lifting it everywhere, anyway. It probably didn't help that we don't have much space. We ended up dismantling it and building a smaller, lighter one without the wheels. We still need two to move it most of the time, but it's much easier to do.

Sort:  

This one moves easily for me on flat ground, but the size does still make it a chore to maneuver in tight spots. I will probably attach some lift handles to both ends of this, so that I can do a two-person lift with it during the difficult moves.
