A chicken Coop that Moves Automatically
Robotic Chicken Tractor Concept
E-Chicken Tractor
- With demand for pastured chicken rising rapidly, Manitoba farmer Daniel Badiou, through his startup Ukko Robotics, has started manufacturing automated mobile chicken coops.

That’s right. They’re basically robots for raising chickens outside.

“Every day it will move by itself, and it can all be programmed via smartphone,”
but WAIT...
Well somehow I am not surprised that robots are now going to raise chickens. Gesh....
robots have been raising our children in public schools for decades.
chickens is easier.
This is pretty cool, haha
I can see it now, my chicken coup got hacked, it wasn't me that programed it to cross the road. Why would someone hack my chicken coup and program it to cross the road.
Joking aside i've seen several experiments with technology and chickens, and that one you posted and this one are the most interesting ive seen:
wtf? idk why all the "," appeared between the letters :s
cute gurl...
ahem
chiken tractors are several orders of magnitude cheaper than chicken VR...and accomplishes the same thing.
wow...this should appeal to @basicstoliving since he's doing homesteading and to all other farmers.
It would be nice! The cost and the upkeep would be out of reach for many homesteaders. A small one at the cost of 10 grand! Sorry, but that is out of my range by a lot.
Hi, I was just thinking about you because I've read a few of your posts, thought maybe you'd be interested. Now, I see and understand. But have you read about the fundition.io that this guy named Patrickulrich put out? Anyways, you have a wonderful lovely day ok.
No, I have not but I will check into it. Thanks!
Absolutely. Have a great day. :)
What will they come up with next? @ironshield
read my posts and find out.
I search the internet, and report on what I find, so you don't have to.
that looks like the deluxe model. No more moving your chicken tractor by hand like a sucker for whoever buys that. finally, a chicken coop with Bluetooth.
it was only a matter of time.
but WAIT
There's MORE
the small economy model for surburban back yards.
introducing the QUAIL tractor.
build on
as the basic chasis...gear down to move MUCH slower.
let the quail eat the grass
but WAIT..
there's STILL MORE
fertilizer the grass at no extra charge.
plus you get
and
meh, Americans did this a while ago

Robot Chicken is amazing... hahaha
lest's ride on chicken..
...the principle is an age old one, just ad motors...(and a little comp).
Doing it manually, you have to use much smaller coops of course.
One advantage of using smaller ones is reduction in avian diseases. ...Isolation.
(they can be a twat for your chuckies..).
If you were thinking of this as a system for quails, or something. Small and more is better than big and few...
yup...I was thinking of something like that for quails.
Perhaps two foot by four foot?
a yard crawler.
Perhaps more than one.
...I don't know how big quails are!
lol.
I'm pretty sure they are small...
....but this was the picture that came into my head...
I quail at the thought..
...it's a good job I'm in a good mood...
I remember when we had turkeys (christmas times). - We had lots of small sheds, to avoid infections.
Big losses with big sheds..
It makes sense to keep them somewhat separated - a few smaller crawlers (i think), would be a better idea...and more manageable.
When I had my farm I had zero luck with domestic turkeys. If any animal was born looking for a place to die it was them. My uncle had a turkey farm at one time. He raised turkeys for school thanksgiving dinners. He'd have dozens of turkeys die every time it rained..they look up..the rain would go into their nostrils...and they'd drown.
funny animals, aren't they?
We had so many die one Christmas - cross infections something, something, - after that we kept them in small sheds and had a foot bath in every one, in and out..
