How to get started raising chickens on pasture!
What happens here
Prior to transferring the chicks, the presenter inspects the fresh ground under the coop for plant roots, which serve as a natural food source for the birds. He then quickly and gently transfers the small chicks from buckets into the chicken tractor. This action ensures the chicks have immediate access to their new grassy environment, where they can forage and their droppings will directly enhance the soil as a 'top-dressing'.
Goal: Young chicks are carefully transferred into the mobile chicken tractor, allowing them to begin grazing on the fresh pasture and contribute to soil enrichment.
