Chicken tractor trek
The new chicken tractor had its first voyage
today across the garden to a new location near the berries.
We discovered that a well placed furniture dolly under the heavier nest
box end made pulling it long distances downright easy.
I installed a couple of lawn mower wheels on the last tractor and it
just didn't seem to be worth it. The furniture dolly is a good
compromise because it can be taken away or switched to another end or
side without much effort. The new occupants seem to be happy with their
new home.
