Great suggestions for how to keep chickens busy when free-ranging isn't practical - we only free range under supervision because of an abundance of local predators (especially the aerial ones) and have to think about new ways to offer enrichment often!

A lovely and detailed article on a practical winter-friendly coop for those with small flocks!

The Egg song, it’s not about the egg; it’s an escort call.

Interesting article and thoughts - my roosters make this call alongside their hens often, and I've often thought about how it must have functions other than simply an egg song or alarm call.
