Good morning fellow chicken keepers
I bought a 2 x 5 piece of sod from the local home improvement store to put in the run. I plan to change it out every few weeks as I know it won't last forever. I'm just going to put it in there so they have a bit of green oasis to eat and play on. I used to let them free range a few hours every day but my Barred Rock keep flying over the fence to the neighbors, so they all have to stay in the coop. (I thought if any, it would be the Leghorn or RIR who'd jump the fence.) Anyway, has anyone tried this. Any reason why this is not a good (if not brilliant ) idea?
Thanks for the input.
