Chicken Tractor 2.0

Our friends Julie and Will, from whom we bought our farm, were recently in need of accommodation for their ducks. When over here recently they saw the chicken tractor I made and asked if I could make them one as well. Since we had a deal in the works to buy one of their ewes, Mirabelle, we decided a straight up trade might work well. Here are a few pictures of the new tractor, which in my opinion is superior to the one I built previously for a few reasons. First, it's more sturdy because I reinforced the corners better and second, it's smaller and thus easier to move around. Theirs is 6' x 10' whereas ours is 8' x 12' and it's a bit of a beast to move each day.
