  1. Really nice but you shouldn’t have sunk the skrews in more than flush bc water will pool there and rot the wood away from the skrews. Great vid

  3. How much money did this cost? I am thinking about using this kind of wire and wood for making a Guinea Pig cage! So, I would love to know the cost! And it would be O’ so appreciated if you made a video about making a 3 level chicken coop, (THAT CAN SUIT A GUINEA PIG!) with a loft (smaller level), if it is to costly it is okay! contact me with my face-book! (Howard Nahaukupuokalani Huihui)! Mahalo, or thank you in Hawaiian!

  6. Hello Patti. Just a tip.. If you pull that sleeve at the end of your drill bit over your screws, It will help you as it guides the screw straight in for you and you won’t keep coming back to the same screw… Nice vids, getting chickens soon… Thanks.

  8. How many chickens can you keep in a tractor this size? I saw that you have rabbits in similar tractors. How many rabbits do you keep in one?
    Thanks so much for sharing

  10. I love your gardening videos, but must admit I don’t like the tractor idea…. I’m not sure how happy those chickens are. I have 11 in 1/16 acre run and still think it’s not enough, once in a while I do open the gate and let them run free in my back yard (1/4 acre). They are so happy then! Dash with lightning speed to roam free. I don’t think they’d be happy in a tiny cage (my coop is 8’x5′). I’m getting ready to buy few acres of land, then chicks will be truly freerange and HAPPY.
