To Al and Gina, I understand the need to make it lighter much easier to handle, but too light can still allow a predator to use their snout to slightly lift up the tractor and get in and attend a chicken buffet! With the surplus of medium sized rocks around the Homestead, you will have easy and cheap protection by strategically placing them on top of the tractor! Good Luck, and love your Channel.

@@TheChuck019456 Chuck! ( 1. 2. 3. ) If a Predator explores Chicken Tractor the Chickens squawk alarm, Brutus is expected to defend, the hardware wire offers a measure of protection ! If Predator would try lifting to get at Chickens, wouldn't happen for fear of getting trapped under, to big for flipping-over ! If Predator tried digging under to get at Chickens it would take time, again Brutus is expected to defend ! So' Chicken Tractors being used by homesteaders is nothing new, and it is of proper size, but it cannot be on property unattended ignored, without any protection measures, cause if allowed enough time a extremely hungry animal ( bear or coyote ) could in time defeat the protection, but that time of it being ignored is not good animal Husbandry ! Nothing protects 100% but Al Chicken Tractors come close, and are designed to cost as little as possible and easily duplicated !

When cutting nylon tarps or webbing or rope use a hot knife blade. These blades are available to fit a soldering iron or a wood burning tool. The heat melts the threads so that they won’t ravel. It is the same principle as burning holes in weed cloth with a torch but with much more precision.

Looks like you've got a superstar in Brutus. Can't wait to see how much he's grown on his next vet visit. How old is he, again? He's huge!

Also, when you said you were getting some stuff from the contractor, I was wondering whether it was going to be Ken since he had retired. I watch his channel and been watching him start on the tiny house. You guys always make my being able to watch your first thing. The chicken tractors are great. I wish I could use something like that but being here in Southern Arizona, I don’t have any grass so I just raised my birds in a pin at about 25 at a time being alone, I only go through about 50 birds. Anyway, you guys have a great week and I will catch your next video on Saturday. God bless.

Good morning Al & Gina, I see Brutus is interacting with the cows today. That is a very good sign. I know some people have questioned it; however, Dogs will just normally navigate to cattle as time goes on. I believe when you are out with him and you need to start getting the cattle, walking with him at first for a time or two should give him the idea. It is so nice to see how things are coming along overtime. Look forward to your summer projects. Reinforcement for the chicken trailers was an excellent idea.
