Just about to sow a wild flower meadow patch in our garden, but our chickens free roam and I'm worried they will eat the seeds or destroy the young plants.
Any suggestions, apart from locking up the chickens for a few weeks?
Thanks for the welcome, we went right around the world pretty quickly there.
Brewster is indeed a Bantam. We have young kids and the Bantams are a bit less intimidating to handle. They're all very well behaved. They have a good sized run, but our coop is quite small and better suited for...
Two of my three Light Sussex Bantams exhibit a brown discolouration on their backs. Could it just be mud?
My red hens are clean and bright, as is the other (larger) LSB, who is a nice pure white.
Perhaps I should try washing it off!?
