Free Range Chicken Trailers
Pastured Poultry Equipment trailers are designed and built right here in New Zealand to suit local conditions.
Our trailers are the most effective, ethical and environmentally friendly way to produce free-range eggs. This saves farmers’ labour time by reducing the number of ground eggs laid, and being portable gives the potential to move chickens to fresh pastures to graze, resulting in happier, healthier chickens with high lay rates.
We have models to suit the lifestyler through to the commercial egg producer sizes from 10 to 600 hens.
