[Tagging] incubator for the birth of chicks

[Allan Mustard]

Speaking as a former farmer and retired agricultural economist, this is 
a type of farmstead, called in OSM "farmyard".

We don't differentiate between farms that produce seeds for planting 
versus grain for consumption. Nor should we differentiate between farms 
that produce chicks for growing out as broilers or layers, or the farms 
that grow out broilers. By the same token we do not distinguish between 
a cow-calf operation (birth to about 8 months) and a feedlot (8 months 
to slaughter, usually around 14 months). Both are farmsteads, and the 
commodity produced is cattle. All that said, we can always add another 
data point via the commodity= tag.

Thus, I would recommend:

landuse=farmyard
farmyard=poultry
commodity=chicks
