John Suscovich Chicken Tractor

[@flipndoris]

That is a very practical setup with a lot of smart touches. Your work shows care and precision even for a project that others might rush through just to have it done.

Thanks! Appreciate your comments

You’ve put a lot of thought into upgrades. I really like what you have done here. I’m definitely going to save this video to incorporate some of these changes into mine. Amazing job!

[@fourpondsshop7940]

Thanks! It's worked out really well.

Wow! Awesome tractor. Thanks for sharing!

[@fourpondsshop7940]

Thanks Danny! That thing works great! We raised about 100 chickens this past summer and that tractor made easy work of it

Super build, I wonder if the little one made it.

[@fourpondsshop7940]

Actually it did!

[@buynsell365]

Very NICE build there. Loved the upgrades you made. When it comes to the conduit pipes.....it looks like you drilled a hole and put them into the wood ??? If so...that must be a wider 2x4 ... Correct ?

[@fourpondsshop7940]

Hi! So yes, I drilled the 2x4. I did a test piece and felt there was enough meat on either side to be strong enough. It's worked out well.

Any concerns about the treated wood ?

[@fourpondsshop7940]

Hi! And thanks for checking out the video. So I don't really. It's my understanding that treated wood changed years ago from an arsenic based compound to a copper compound. I did a bunch of Google searches and checked with our local cooperative extension and nothing turned up. Like your concern, my wife had a similar question
