Joel Salatin has written a book about chicken tractors for broilers. A fellow in Pennsylvania has made a chicken tractor that the chickens move to greener pastures themselves. Basically, using chicken tractors with produce growing operations creates a multiply symbiotic relationship between livestock and crops that is helpful in small growing areas. Call (800) 307 8949 to subscribe to "Growing for Market". It is a must read for small and medium size growers. Joel Salatin's book can be purchased through Acres USA (800) 355-5313
