Hello from Shoreline Washington!

post #1 of 12
Thread Starter 

We have a flock of five Plymouth Rock hens that are just a year old and laying lots of eggs! Because they love kitchen scraps of all kinds I made a little bin to encourage neighbours to drop a bag of lettuce trimmings, potato peels or stale bread and whatever else would otherwise go to waste, in the bin whenever they are out walking the dog. Fun and builds community too! :)002.JPG

Hello and welcome-byc.gif

I think your bin is an absolutely awesome idea. It's so true, my chickens are pretty much the place where all our leftover food goes. tongue.png

Glad to have you on board!

Don't hesitate to ask any questions you might have, and enjoy the site. frow.gif

Hi and welcome to BYC from northern Michigan frow.gif

Home of the world's cutest dachshund, one crazy blue heeler, two cats,
              one fat pony, and many (but not too many!) chickens

              Can anyone tell me, how many are too many chickens?
