About:
Jason and Lorraine. In 2016 we sold most of our belongings and left the city in southern California to start a small homestead in the mountains of North Carolina. We left the city in search for a more minimal and intentional life. We became passionate about growing our own food and knowing what exactly is in our food after I (Jason) became diagnosed with cancer. Now 8 years in remission we as a family are on a journey to live our passions.
We document our life on YouTube videos to inspire others to get out of their comfort zone and not be afraid of change. We started our own online general store where we have available the things we make and use in real life. Thank you for following us on this incredible life changing journey!

My dad grew up during the 40's and they always had chickens, ducks, rabbits and pigeons in the back yard. In the 70's we were watching Foghorn leg horn and he decided I needed to experience raising chickens. He made a simple pen like yours but he just used old window screens or storm windows with chicken wire, took five of them and nailed them together with the ends being one half of a window frame, one being hinged. He put a rubber tarp or something on top, an open wooden keg with straw and the two hens laid in there. Simple, cheap and fast with no lumber work.

Jason, can I offer a suggestion? I was thinking about this watching Justin Rhodes too and I wondered if maybe you guys put a small hook on the top you could have a place to keep the rope up of the ground. That would save you from bending down to grab the rope and also keep it out of the mud or from getting frozen in ice in the winter, too. 😊 Have a great day! ❤️

Looks like a lovely home for some chickens!

I just built this! I’m so thankful for your content 🥰 and I’m so excited to get my meat chicken.

[veracampbell]

That Was Cool Jason
Thanks For Sharing Your Chicken Tractor Build!

Solid build. I've been kicking around the idea of "pasture" raising some meat birds at our house, but wanted to keep it fairly low key. This looks great.

[heckmancs]

Started this tractor and love it. Have some bantams that were going to keep in here, plenty of space for them. Thanks for sharing! 👍

I don’t know why you have any dislikes. Great video brother, you truly are an inspiration. I’m actually in the process of moving to Trade Tennessee (North Easternmost part) and am planning to do just as you. I have a 31.4 acre lot but it’s mostly hill (former beef land), so I’ll have to overcome that obstacle. You as well as many others on YouTube are what’s keeping me on track and helping me learn as much as I can. Thank you for all that you do.

Love this! I need to build a couple of these for enlisting help our birds to clear the grass growing along our woodchipped paths in our food forest. Our hens would love it!
