How to gather free-range chickens

What if you are a commercial chicken farmer and you have thousands of free-range chickens that need to be gathered? You give Lewis/Mola a call and ask for a price on their Lewis/Mola PH2000: From their website:

For generations, broilers have been harvested manually. While poultry processors have become increasingly automated, harvesting in the U.S. has continued to rely primarily on hand-catching. In today's high tech world, many processors are finding it increasingly difficult to secure qualified catch crews.

The Lewis/Mola PH2000 has revolutionized the catch process. Quite simply, it was the first machine proven to successfully harvest broilers in the United States. While the PH2000's design is unique, its operation is simple, its manufacturing... durable, and its reliability... outstanding. Consequently, conventional dependence on manual catch crews is now eliminated. At the same time, processors realize significant labor savings as the PH2000 requires less manpower.
