| Feed and Water |
The broiler runs were not the only chicken tractor, though. This quaint little blue tractor just begged to have its own picture. We concluded that it is used to haul the large barrel of water from the source to the field. Honestly, I do not even know where the source was, as the chicken field was surrounded by woods on one side and fields on the other. However, I think the tractor was up to the job. If you look closely at the hopper feeder in front, you might pick out the birds inside. Well, with those rust problems, it would not be hard for the pullets to climb in. I think they are probably looking for shade as much as food. The sun was beating down on them, and the shelter of the PVC coop was a good ways off, as we will see in the next post.
