"Chicken TV"



Chicken Tractor or a Mobile Chicken Coop




Ever heard of "Chicken TV"?  
Chickens can be mesmerizing!  
We love to sit in the evening and watch them. 

 I have no doubt my stress lessens and my blood pressure lowers, when I take a little time to look after the little family of chickens.   



   A Chicken Tractor is a portable chicken coop.  This allows chicks to free-range in a completely protected manner.  


We have some little Bantams that we want to make sure are safe. 
Our little coop makes this possible.   

Bantams are mini versions of regular breeds of chickens.  



Our Chicken Tractor is in the garden.  
We move it every few days.  This provides a great benefit for the garden as well as the chicks.  

First,  the chickens eat the grass and bugs.  This helps keep insect destruction down in the plants and allows 
for very natural food for the chicks.  

Second, the chicken poop, over time will help to fertilize the ground for the next growing season.
