Training our Chickens to Move in their Chicken Tractors
Today on the homestead, we're showing how we train our pasture-raised broilers to follow a feeding routine that makes moving the tractor faster, easier, and less stressful for both us and the birds. We'll share why we stopped using traditional feeders, how feeding on fresh grass improved sanitation and pasture health, and how moving birds more often helps spread natural fertilizer across the farm. We'll also take you from their very first day on pasture to week five so you can see how quickly they learn the routine. As a bonus, we'll show how we weigh our meat chickens and track their growth to make sure they're on target for processing. If you're raising meat chickens in tractors, this simple system might save you time and make your daily chores a whole lot easier. #pastureraisedchicken #meatchickens #chickentractor #homesteading #raisingchickens #pasturedpoultry #smallfarm #homestead1440 #broilerchickens #rotationalgrazing Thank you for watching today! 8 Week PDF Guide to Raising Chickens for Meat: https://flatgapfarm.weebly.com/store/...
