@london1817 cool design. i figure you could probably just find an old kid's wagon or a wheelbarrow and take the axle off of it and use it for wheels. since you built a handle on one end already you'd only need a single axle to move the tractor around like a wheelbarrow. probably not even 15 minutes to make the adjustment to what you've already built.

@spiritartman The name of the video is "chicken tractor UPDATE" user/london1817#p/search/11/uU
cSrfNhDBM ...... Put the youtube stuff in front of that link. Rick put tin on the sides and it doesn't look like the same tractor in the video.

Didn't mean to criticise your tractor which is a work of art compared to the ugly structures we use! (I'm not a great craftsman with such DIY! ) In general I think it's a great principle to clear ground and I must get round to constructing something with wheels at one end this summer.

@BillynBertie Oh ...I didn't take it that way my friend! good point you made....I like my Whyanndote coop
that doesn't move...I just open it every day and they can pick thru whatever they want ...I think that is healthy
for chickens to get thier own way of exercise and brousing time.

Far too expensive and elaborate a 'chicken tractor'. for simply fattening up chickens for the pot, you don't need coops or covers, merely some plastic over the end to give cover from the rain. The heavier the thing is, the less likely you are to move it. Something with wheels is always better so one person can move it easily.
the other problem is that chickens leave alone the most obnoxious and difficult to remove weeds like docks. Anyone can pull out a bit of grass.

@BillynBertie Well...I built it from recycled wood and crap laying around...I think it you are right though. I built it to be pleasing to my eyes. It is kinda hard to mve...I like the flat roof kind....so you can put a 5-gallon
waterer on it.
