What happens here
The video briefly shows a montage of the mobile chicken coop's construction. It was built on an old hay wagon frame, using wood for the structure and sides, and galvanized metal for the feeder and roll-out nest boxes. The goal is for the coop to travel around the farm, allowing chickens to fertilize specific areas and consume insect larvae from cattle manure. The coop is equipped with an automatic 'Chickcozy' door that closes at dusk, providing predator protection.
Goal: Showcase the DIY construction and key features of the Eggmobile.
