These are the sketches and final product of my Eggstream chicken tractor. It is made for 3-4 regular chickens or 5-6 Bantams. There are definitely some changes that need to be made. It needs bigger wheels for easier portability. It needs a door that I could get into to catch the chickens if needed. Later I plan on adding a heat lamp for winter. Also, the feeder needs work. The food gets caught up in the elbow of the PVC pipe and all the chicks crowd the first opening. There needs to be some slope or ram rod or something to make it work right. But still I am pleased with the over all design. I am anxious to see the little girls grow into it.
