Mobile Chicken Coops. Noble Welding purchased Dalam Welding a couple of years ago and decided to continue building the mobile chicken coops started by Dalam. These coops allow the producer to move their flock without tearing up just one section of their yard.
Made of aluminum, the units won’t see any rot or rust. The canvas tops are designed to last five to seven years before being replaced, making for easy maintenance. There are layer and broiler models designed to meet producers’ needs. The broiler coops include built-in watering systems, which can also be added to the layer coops.
A 4-by-6-foot layer coop starts at $1,280, and a variety of other sizes and options are available. Direct questions to 574-642-5010.
PASTURE-RAISED: Noble Welding’s mobile chicken coops make raising chickens on pasture easier than ever. The coops come in layer and broiler models and feature a variety of add-ons.
Waste Oil Furnaces. Gingerich Clean Burn furnaces can be an outlet for waste oil sitting around on the farm. The CB-2500 model, one of the larger models, requires about 1,500 gallons of oil to heat for a season. Any petroleum products will work for these environmentally friendly and U.S. EPA-approved furnaces.
