Here is the first Chicken Tractor. We’re putting it in the Upper Garden with the two Orpington roosters in residence. More to come on how the design might be improved.

Chickens – May 2016
A flock of happy chickens…
We currently (May 2016) have 11 Red Star egg layers with 6 Brown Isis and 3 Golden Sex Links coming along. The 9 smaller birds are about 4 months now and will start to lay soon.
The Red Star flock resides alongside a dozen Orpington Barred-Rock hens of equally happy nature. The birds free range on mixed grass pasture, grazing and foraging alongside their pals the three Dwarf Newbian Goats.
Life is good…
