    Great read, thank you! I don't really have the landscaping yet to free range, but I have created a 20X30 addition to my runs that is covered by aviary netting for my flocks of 9 and 3. they alternate days out in it because I have roosters in both flocks. It works for us, but I would love to...

    My hens won't eat anything other than regular feed

    The first time I gave watermelon, I hand fed a few of my girls tiny pieces. They will pretty much eat anything from my hand. Once they realized it was edible, they went to town. They love it!
