I got my meat chicks the other day. They are such a pain (Cornish cross). The bedding has to be hanged every couple of days and they always seem to end up in the chicken house that doesn't have good access for the manure spreader. I have been thinking for a year what to do with them. I have three chicken houses and they are all a pain for raising meat birds for one reason or another.
In the night I had a brain phart. What if I raise them in the stock trailer? It is in the shed so they will be warm enough as chicks. It is my old bumper pull so I am not worried about rust - it is the trailer I use for hogs. I won't need it until after I butcher them. I can pull it in the shed that shuts tight. The slatted floor will help the bedding stay dry. I can power wash it down when they are gone. They NEVER go outside as they are too lazy and I can pull it out on nice days to air the shed.
Is this crazy? What do you guys that raise Cornish cross do with the nasty birds? I only do 30 a year.
