Mice... who needs a cat when you have chickens?!

ok... whats the leg trick... how do you do it and what are you looking for?

i have two rabbits running with our chickens all the time... they seem to get along together... eggs are tasty and the rabbits are happy.

weel, i guess the verdict is in... i have seen them dust bathe before but never with all the holes... yeah it looks like a lunar landscape...

I have three of my hens digging holes and sitting in them. They are not laying eggs in the holes, they just sit in them. When i bend down to pick them up they do not move. They let me pick them up but seem fine when i put them back down. they start scratching around the yard and eating...
