Building a chicken tractor out of scraps | Animals | Forums

so letting the turkeys free ranging in the yard is becoming a issue, they are wandering a little to much for my liking, plus the amount of poop all over the deck is a little out of control, so I decided to moved them back into the coop, first I needed to make something to put the cornish cross into, I had a stack of 2x4's in the barn, so I grabbed them

and cut some 24 inch sections

and screwed together a framework

and repeated it 3 more times

I hauled the sections down to the yard and screwed them together

and put in some cross braces on top

I had some wire left over from the duck house, so I wrapped the outside with that

and took the fabric from the trampoline that got destroyed this spring and stretched it over the top

I picked up some carabiners

and hooked the loops of the trampoline and connected it to the chicken wire

I moved the birds over to their new digs

and will move it every couple a days, now I just need to rodeo the turkeys into the coop!
