Chick update: It may not be pretty, but it is unique.

The chicks are four weeks old and have out grown the small brooder box we keep them in while they are just little fluff balls, so it is time to introduce them to the bigger box in their new chicken tractor. We just use what we have so this creation is kind of a Frankenstein's Monster. I don't think the chicks will mind. 

They have their own mobile yard or chunnel. 

We are still building the feeders and waterers. Right now they are using regular chick feeders/waterers.

The brooder box is almost too big, I couldn't get it in one shot, but the top is half solid and half wire and it has a door on one side we will open in a day or two so they can run in and out of the box. Eventually we will open the gate to the great outdoors. 

So far all the little ladies are healthy and happy we hope to keep them that way.

Great repurposing.

Recycle, reuse and happy chicks, nothing more needed.

The way we figure it, we can always built a hoop house/tractor at a later date if we decide to and re-purpose this one for storage. In the mean time the chicks have a new home that cost us about nothing, my mad inventor got to invent, and some of the stock pile got used up, always a win in my book. LOL
