It is my intention, once we get settled on the land, to cross fence and rotate the cows through several pastures. I plan on building a coop onto a trailer and move it from pasture to pasture behind the cattle. I am thinking it will take anywhere from 50-100 chickens to accomplish the task of cleaning up behind the cows. As I was writing this it dawned on me an alternative may be to build a smaller permanent coop in each pasture. Will have to give this some more thought. Any one that reads this feel free to offer up suggestions. We raise TX Longhorn cattle.
