How is it that you are planting inside the run? The chickens don't bother the seeds? Are you fencing of a section till it grows? I have a 14x20 and would like to try and do something like this. Thanks.
Thanks Mary. :) I wasn't necessarily planning on 'starving' them. I've been toying with the idea of making my own feed. I guess I was wondering if I maybe, reduced a certain ingredient and added extra of another, it would lead them to lay less frequently. But I do feel better knowing that...
First time owner/poster, so please excuse my ignorance and long-windedness. ;)
After doing a ton of reading and asking friends questions, I am soon going to be the proud owner of 8 chickens.
I've heard that back in olden times chickens were much more free range and didn't necessarily lay one...
