Thanks all!
I have been putting straw a few inches deep over most of the area of the enclosure and abit thicker in the coop. But going through ALOT of straw! Is this normal to be covering the whole ground or do you leave as mud?
Have just bought a couple of fake eggs to pop in the nesting box...
Thank you, much appreciated.
The area in my garden fenced for the chickens is 12x20ft. It has 2 big trees so I just think it will be really difficult to cover! So maybe sand isn't the route for me!
Thanks all. Sand seems very interesting.. Is this something I could consider putting all over there run instead of the mud and straw/pine shavings as well as in there coop or are they best to have normal bedding?
Hello all,
I have just joined back yard chickens, however since I first started with my chickens in August I have read through countless of threads to help me on my way!!
All in all the hen keeping seems to be going quite well and everything I am not sure on I seem to be able to find out quite...
