Chickens

So this is the new set-up for the chickens. This photo shows them outside their tent. We move the tent often so they have clean grass. The feeders are outside so they have to go out to get food. The waterer is that green PVC pipe, cut in half and suspended from what looks like a sawhorse; there's a float that causes the water to turn on when the level is below a certain point. This keeps the water clean, fresh, and cool for the chickens to drink.

What looks like netting around them is actually a movable, flexible fence. It does resemble snow fence but has a few metal filaments in it so it can be electrified. This keeps the chickens safe from predators.

And the last photo is a full-grown chicken. They should weigh about 4-5 lbs. after 7 weeks. Our sales are "farm-gate" only, whole chickens only, and the cost is $3.25/lb. Give us a call if you're interested.
