Do any of you tractor your grow outs?

Currently my go to rabbit reference is " Raising Pastured Rabbits For Meat" by Carangelo. She also advocates grow out tractors, in a different way and style than the video.  I have kept everyone on wire so far. I will continue to keep the breeders on wire, being more convinced by the book verses the video on that issue.

I have a limited breeding season here because of the heat but I think 1/2 or at least 1/3 of my grow outs could be going on grass when it starts growing so I wanted to get any feedback/experience you have on rabbit grow out tractors, the good/bad/ugly.
