Hi,
My chickens normally get a good run in the morning and also in the evenings - as long as I'm home they're running around. However, now that the days are so much shorter they are in bed before I get home from work.. so they're overall run time has decreased significantly. As a result, I'm really concerned they will get bored during the day.
This is my first autumn / winter of keeping chickens so I'm very much on a learning curve and would welcome any advice. Does anyone have any ideas or know of any products which will help break the boredom for my girls during the day?
By the way, they dont appear to be displaying any behavioural changes at the moment but just want to be proactive.
Many thanks
