A brief documentary of my set-up for raising meat chickens. I raised 12 colored rangers from J.M. Hatchery with this chicken tractor and run. The chicks went into the tractor at age 1.5 weeks, and initially I moved it every couple days. At about 4 weeks old, I started moving it once a day. By 5 weeks old, moving the tractor was not keeping up with the poop, so we added the run that you see here. In the video they are 10 weeks old and due to be harvested in 2 days. All 12 chickens have been very healthy and active. I have had no losses. In the 10 weeks, they ate about 220 pounds of food, and averaged a little under five pounds per bird. Food conversion ratio = 3.8 lbs of feed: 1 lb dressed weight.
