We start our broiler chickens in a brooding house and then move them onto pasture in a Chicken Train – a large floorless mesh enclosure that moves slowly over the pasture. This year we hope to implement Louis’ new design for the Chicken Train, which incorporates the brooder as a loft. The Chicken Train moves three times a day, covering twenty feet of certified organic pasture in a twenty minute period. This frequent movement keeps the chickens supplied with pasture and the pasture supplied with chicken manure.
