Featherman Prairie Schooner 16'x24'

Prairie Schooner

Exactly as electric fence allows the modern agriculturist to mimic the movements of great herds of bison and stimulate land rejuvenation toward prairie, the Prairie Schooner allows the grower to mimic the other keystone species of the prairie, the Prairie Chicken, with equal benefits.

The Prairie Schooner is available in two models, the  20′ x 40′ and 16′ x 24′.

16′ x 24′ Prairie Schooner: 

In this model, you can raise up to 300 broilers or 150 layers. This Schooner measures 16 x 24.’ That’s 384 square feet. 384 ft² / 300 birds = 1.28 ft² per bird.

Shipping not included. Discounts available for orders of 5 or more. Does not include chicken wire, tarp and tow chains. This schooner weighs 1950 lbs.

Both Schooners Include:

• 2 Doors (4′ x 6′) front and back
• Frame 2 ⅜’’ Galvanized Steel Tubing
• C-channel and wiggle wire
• All hardware

Billboard Tarps:

We recommend the 15oz weight which can be purchased here: https://billboardtarps.com

Size needed for the 16′ x 24′ Schooner: 36′ x 30′ (also allows for 2′ extra on the sides which can be rolled up and serve as eaves when not in use)

End Tarps:

During the summer, use hardware store tarp and bungee cords which can be easily placed on the weather-end before a storm.

During the winter, use the same wiggle wire channel and heavy duty tarp used for the big tarp, so as to form a tight envelope around the structure.

Size needed for the 16′ x 24′ Schooner: 10′ x 18′ of tarp

Additionally, you will need to purchase chicken wire, rubber belting and tow chains to complete your setup.
