Raising broiler birds..Tips and Tricks! food/water/health/safety

What happens here

The video begins with an introduction to Josh Stern of Stoney Ridge Farmer, who presents his method of raising Cornish Cross broiler chickens in a mobile coop. These chickens are approximately three weeks old and have been in the mobile coop for about a week. The mobile coop, also known as a chicken tractor (Salatin-style), is designed to allow the chickens to be moved daily across the lawn, providing them with fresh forage and distributing their manure.

Goal: The presenter introduces young broiler chickens and explains the concept of using a mobile coop to raise them for meat while also fertilizing the lawn.
