Dog versus chicken!! Stop it before it happens to you!

What happens here

Carefully collect the baby chicks from their brooder box and place them into a bucket for transport. Once at the mobile coop on the pasture, gently transfer the chicks from the bucket into the coop. The video demonstrates moving Rainbow Ranger Broilers and Cornish Cross birds. At this stage (around 3 weeks old), the chicks are old enough to be moved from the brooder to the mobile coop, where they will begin to forage on fresh grass.

Goal: Move chicks safely from brooder to mobile coop
