How clever, I love it, gotta love them zip ties!!🎉❤😮❤
What a cool chicken pen. The babies are gonna love it. I love how you work as a team. I hubby and I worked together to build our upstairs 30 yrs ago but it still brings fond memories. Blessings!!😊
I just made my version of a Suscovich tractor in the past two days. I also used pvc that I already had stored in the garage. But I put it every foot for added support. I used chicken wire on top and hardware cloth along the bottom and on the sides/door.
Sounds great!
great job but girl what a view amazing God's country right there.
Isn't it?!! I love it here!
@@mamabairds oh yes beautiful
Love your chicken tractor!
Keep well
You two are teaching me so many valuable lessons in the kitchen and outdoors! Thank you for sharing your homesteading ways. I live on the coast in Washington. We would love to have chickens but it's against code in my town. We are wondering if we could have "support chickens" and skirt that code. They really would make us feel better!
Support chickens should totally be a thing!! I'll sign that petition! Haha
@@mamabairds seriously tho, thank you for your helpful videos. I'm twice your age and learning so much from you about food prep, storage, and general homestead information. You're inspiring! I'll let you know how my support chicken efforts proceed 😉.
@@lindabarnes4128 I'm so glad my videos are helpful!! Yes keep me updated! Chicken snuggles are a must to keep anxiety down! haha
Good morning Carolina I love the chicken tractor I can't have chickens I have to many predators in my yard between the foxes, coyotes and hawks they take away everything except the rabbits, squirrels and groundhogs the groundhogs are as big as the foxes so they are good the squirrels are fast and usually can get into the trees bunnies they go under my shed and we have so many we wouldn't notice if one went missing. I must admit that's a nice looking tractor. I have been working in the garden today I ran out and planted potatoes and sweet potatoes tomorrow will be onions and garlic we could have one more frost this week so I holding back the plants until after I am sure there will be no more frost but hope to have everything in by the beginning of May. Looking forward to your next video.
Man, you have a lot going on! Great job working hard to grow your own food! When we lived in Missouri, we couldn't keep chickens alive either. Everything would get them. We are very lucky that we dont seem to have as many predators here as we did there. Knock in wood!
I saw a video of how to put an electric wire on the bottom edge of the chicken tractor.
@@gglotto6525 that would be a good idea!
Good job, looks great 👍
Thank you!
Awesome
Good work Papa Baird
He does a good job!
@@mamabairds yes Mama
I know you are cutting cost, hardware clothe along the bottom
or something over top to keep predators out. Chicken wire basically will keep your chickens in but I have had raccoons eat my chickens through the chicken wire🤦🏾♂️
It looks like a hobbit house!! Lol
Haha! It kinda does!!
Just use greenhouse channel and wiggle wire n plastic, 4 1/2 year life of plastic
Oh thats a great idea!
