28 chickens and 7 hours later (I can’t begin to tell you all the screwy things that went wrong, including escapes, recaptures and equipment problems!). It’s been a very long day, but it’s finally done. Final pay per hour – don’t even ask! More improvements to be made. Onwards and upwards!

The first chicken tractor for our pastured meat birds has rolled off the assembly line. Still need a little work on the front roof screen, but it’s good enough to hold the current crop of 50 freedom rangers at their current size. This was the prototype – let’s see if we can make the next one faster. This crop will be ready around the first week on November. If you’re interested in tasty pasture raised chicken, contact us or visit our website at www.avalonfarms.us for more info on how to purchase.
