Awesome job , can’t wait to see it being used in the winter with the pigs . Not only are you a marine farmer guy but a Gadget inventor marine guy ! Love it! 🤪
Awsome job! Thanks for sharing this will all of us!!! Thank you for your service to our country and for helping veterans get started with farming!!! I am not a military vet but I am a firefighter/emt in our small community!
I was a DoD teacher on a base overseas for 5 years. Prior to that at Ft Stewart for 1.5 years. Reintegration was tough for many. Being able to be their own boss, plus working outside doing physical labor would be just the ticket. Sure beats being stuck inside without someone looking over their shoulder all day. Thanks for your service and for offering your knowledge to your brothers in arms. God bless you.
The nice thing about the small structures is modularity and portability. I move chickens all over 3 counties. But I had to go bigger scale like you, so I just find an area in the field to stick them when not in use and built more structures. Kind of the same deal, but hoop houses on skis. I have a bunch of old hoop houses.
Looks great! Never been a fan of the low tractors because of heat. Look forward to see how they perform for the dual purpose as well as during high heat weather.
Fantastic. I have moved away for the Joel S syrup chicken Tractors as well. They are fine if you have young employees to harvest your children out of. But at 44 I am not bending and getting on my knees chasing them birds.
Jordan, hello. I'm watching you from Türkiye. Your new dual purpose coops are beautiful. Congratulations, you made a great choice. Their size allows them to do great work, reducing human labor. I want to ask something. Where do you keep the chickens and turkeys when you move the pigs into these coops in the winter?
Definitely an improvement of the old 2' tall structures.What did you use for the 'skids'? I notice they were curved up at the ends and obviously metal - 6"? I'll be building some chicken and turkey tractors and trying to decide whether to order some Schooners, build my own or modify a pre-fab structure like you did. Thanks for sharing. Dennis
I know in our area you may not have to worry about it but once a year or even three, but was the fact that snow will not slide off the horizontal ribbed roof a factor for how you constructed?
Great. I like the torque feature of your design. You had 10 years of observation of what works for you...6 grand is a good price. No slavery to the bank is important!🍄🌈😃🤙
Hey that looks GREAT. I live on the plains of Kansas and we can get gusts up to 60 MPH, how do you think that would do in that kind of wind? Thanks for the great video and idea 😁
Question. Please. Regarding piglet housing. Perhaps 40 weaner piglets per unit. This unit is 2- x 24" 48- square feet. 12 square feet each. I can imagine up to 46 or 48. Depending on litter sizes. For what average length of time will piglets be housed in these units? Up to about what carcass live weight?

Very well done Jordan.
Any cost-effective practical application have two votes from me.
Thanks for sharing.

This is great, thanks for sharing Jordan.

A lot of thought and great design. Thanks for sharing

That’s really cool using mats around the bottom.
Nice idea. That's why I keep looking for videos from you.
Looking forward to see it transform for winter! Great build!
Same here! First piglets should be mid September..
Old conveyer belting from a quarry might be good to reduce cost of the mats-- great video and design of the structure!
I was thinking about something like this as well. Glad to see more mobile structures that can have multi use.
Looks great!

Outstanding!!!
You nailed it, really
Damn. You are just an engineering genius.
Very nice. Well though out
Looks really good! Nice work!
Very cool Jordan. We built our own MRC for this season. We love it, but my shins are jealous of your clear span design.
Yeah that was another thing I didn't want to deal with. Those cross bars look quite "trippy"
Mega świetne rozwiązanie!!! 😉🖖
Please make a video of your construction of your building your next shelter
well done
Pretty darn innovative!

I did the Simpson style tractors this year, next year I’m doing something like what you have there. 👍✌️🇨🇦❤️

4" galvanized pipe. We fabbed the base ourselves.
Do you have any experience containing animals on uneven ground with your mobile pens? I appreciate your vids…
Little Duce Coop.
What was the temperature 🌡 degree when you recorded this and what was the date please?
Great idea, I'm wondering how many pigs that could provide shade for? I'm in FL so less concerned with winter than the extreme heat of summer.
About 25

Love the channel do you have any plans for your dprc
not yet.
Interested in this. Looking forward to your pig production videos,,,,,,,,,, “ASH” ……ALL SEASON HOUSES
Great design. is it possible for grazing goats.
I like ...

Very smart design Jordan! I would say this new design is much more predator proof. Any issues with moving the birds and running them over?
How well did this work for pigs?
Hi there, did you make a follow up video with the piglets using this structure?
Not yet.
Can u send a link to the items needs to build this?
Hey that looks GREAT. I live on the plains of Kansas and we can get gusts up to 60 MPH, how do you think that would do in that kind of wind?
Thanks for the great video and idea 😁
We had 60-70 mph storm and it moved it about 2 inches.

👍👍💵
I think a hoophouse on these skids would work, too.
Yes, pretty much anything would bolt up.
do u benefit from manure left behind in any form? Grazing bailing?
For sure, we graze the pastures with both cows and pigs.
Justin Rhodes sent me!
I built something very similar how did you do the sled part or find the products for that
We custom fabricated the bottom.
Why do you go with Cornish chickens over other breeds such as red rangers?
Could something like this be moved with a side by side ranger or would it need a tractor?
Tractor or pickup. Our gator spins out trying to pull it.
Question. Please. Regarding piglet housing. Perhaps 40 weaner piglets per unit.
This unit is 2- x 24" 48- square feet. 12 square feet each. I can imagine up to 46 or 48.

For what average length of time will piglets be housed in these units?
Up to about what carcass live weight?
Just for weaning. Probably a month or 6 weeks.
@@FarmBuilder Thanks Jordan.
Give gas!
Solid idea, how can these be 6k$?
John, why do you not have broilers in the Winter?? Thanks
Birds don't do well out on pasture in the winter weather here.
Where do they sleep?
Do you butcher your own chickens?
The DPRC looks very efficient!!
Yes, we do process our birds on farm.
Personally I would put them on rails, then they are more stable and lighter to move
Leave it to a veteran to create an acronym for everything 😂
🥰🥰
Special Utility Pullet Residence and Dual Purpose Pig'Rator (SUPR DPPR aka the SUPER DUPER)
😆 impressive!!
@@FarmBuilder I had 25 minutes to spare today while eating lunch - this was the most my brain could muster on a Sunday - lol.
Add a solar powered winch programmed to move the building an inch per hour or so and you wont have to move them by tractor any more.
Good idea if you have a massive anchor to connect to.
And its much easier to catch and load birds come processing time
Indeed!
Where buy the skids?
We manufactured them ourselves.
@@FarmBuilder What is the diameter of the skid pipe?
4" galvanized.
puth wood slaps under the structer so the metalen dosen where out
