LAWNMOWER as FOOD CHOPPERApparently it was quite common throughout Australia for households
to keep
chickens. Instead of purchasing an expensive
feed cutter,this
article from
1931 suggests that the household's hand mower could be
quickly converted to do the job. Instant chicken feed!
[p.s. Ever wondered what a real
deluxe chicken coop would look like?
Look no further than

But Wait - There's More!The idea of a hand mower being adapter to cut food for animals seems quite old.
Here's two articles, one from
1898 and then
1908.
