Mobile Chicken Coop - Raising Chickens on Pasture

[@SarahPerine]

You do an AMAZING job with your coop! I’m so impressed! And with a full time job and family. I’m a new sub. Good luck to you🙌🏽

Super nice build this is more of what a working man needs

[@carlflowers1693]

thx for your time and info,have a 16 footer i believe will do for me

[@johnlookabill8495]

I noticed your North Carolina hat. I’m from Salisbury halfway between Charlotte and Greensboro near I-85. What are are you in? Looks pretty flat there. Love seeing young people living the country lifestyle. Great videos. God bless you and your family.

We are more eastern NC! Thank you so much for following along

[@rebeccaplumlee9601]

Overall a great system! Not being critical, maybe helpful hints: Possible modifications. Help with nest box-> change so the side folds down, stationary top, keeps leaks down. I know it will take more material. Windows-> chicken wire keeps chickens in, but isn't predator proof, hardware cloth change out if/when u can. Roosts-> is there a way u can hang where u can lift out/off so u can get urself all the way back to clean off floors cross members?. I had open floor in my coop, not as nice as urs & my coop was on sled runners, so not as easy to move. If it gets way way cold, u can throw something on the floor to block wind -- anything from cardboard to straw.

Thank you!

Change the 2x4’s to round stock ..... better for their feet. In nature, limbs are round, not square 😉

[@kristenbellinger6589]

it's actually better for chickens to keep their feet flat, and their bodies can keep their feet warm that way too :)

I like your chicken coop.

[@halilbalaban1056]

Hello my friend. I am following you from Turkey. Since I do not know a foreign language, I cannot fully understand what you are saying. Even if that's why you said it, I might have missed it. Can you write the dimensions of the caravan from outside to outside, length, width and height in meters? Also, is there electricity in the fences? How many volts of electricity are applied, if any? I will be very happy if you answer these questions. I wish you a good day with your chickens.

[@surgicaltechcrafter2169]

Fantastic but I need a better idea for their feet. I agree with another commenter drop down nest box they do not like things coming at them overhead. Maybe some rope wrapped nesting bars for sleeping. Oh man we are so doing something like this for our next project. Thank you.

[@WheretheJones]

Can you share the specs on the expanded metal? Would like to know the opening size and thickness.

[@rwilliams76052]

I’m local and would like to come buy some eggs. Do you have a storefront or do I go to your home?

[@ballancefamilyfarm]

Hello! If you find us on Facebook and message us we’d be happy to help. Thanks

[@solovable1ify]

Put your water tank inside the chicken tracktor. It'll be lest likely to freeze in the winter.

[@ballancefamilyfarm]

Thankfully we don’t have to deal with super cold temperatures

[@i_be_eternity]

Why not just buy a $5 ratchet strap and strap the water in place?

[@rmar127]

If you move the chooks more often, you’ll most likely find that the feed barrel lasts even longer.

[@ballancefamilyfarm]

We move them once a week and that’s about as much as we have time for!

[@cazsantics525]

Absolutely genius

[@chabrol20]

Where did you purchase that fence from?

[@ballancefamilyfarm]

The white netting fence is from premier one! Their website is great and very helpful.

[@chabrol20]

@@ballancefamilyfarm thank you so much. Looking forward to watching your videos to see the progress on your new property and your new home.

[@ballancefamilyfarm]

[@rockhillfarmsllc]

[@ballancefamilyfarm]

It sure is! The best of both worlds in my opinion. It needs some things here and there but it runs good.
