Thanks for the video, I found it very interesting. I plan on using a chicken tractor for the parts of my parents property that have flat land but will use the coop in the winter months because I live in Canada and our winters here can be brutal. My parents property is also a combination of forest and wetlands, so there is limited space for a tractor.
I just had a chicken tractor built and have a “2 story” unit for the egg laying area. We live in Eastern NC so we rarely get snow. How old do the chickens need to be before we put them in the tractor? I want to make this work without a stationary coop and have lots of land.

That's great if you have grass in winter and not Snow. 🤷

If they don't need a heat lamp to maintain body heat they are ready to go into the chicken tractor.
If one uses a chicken tractor, do the chickens live inside the tractor till harvest?
How many chickens can be on one square meter
