DIY Chicken Tractor
I used a bunch of scrap wood to build this chicken tractor. It works great and it has a wire apron around the perimeter to keep fox from digging under. These are great mobile chicken runs that are an alternative to the more traditional chicken coops. You use less bedding and the chickens eat bugs and fertilize your grass as you move them around. #chickens #homesteading #diy
