Andy Lee and Pat Foreman's book entitled Chicken Tractor: the Permaculture of Happy Hens and Healthy Soil claims to be a "revoloutionary, practical, hands-on book for gardeners and poultry growers. It has already helped thousands of gardeners have better gardens and has literally changed the lives of millions of chickens all over the world. A chicken tractor is a bottomless, portable pen that fits over your garden beds. Just set it wherever you need help in your garden. The chickens peck and scratch the soil to clean your beds, eat pest bugs and weed seeds. Best of all, they provide eggs and meat with that old-fashioned flavor. Chicken tractors have helped thousands of gardeners have better gardens and taken chickens out of factory farms and put them in the garden where they are your personal helpers."
