Does anyone else use this system for their hens. I have started using it this year. I am finding it brilliant and my small flock of young RIRs seem to like it as well. I have two runs one is roughly 10m by 4m and the other is about 8m by 8m as well as a small scratching run of about 4 m by 2m. Currently the scratching run is mostly made up of lawn cuttings, autumn leaves, their dirty bedding and weeds from the garden. I through whole wheat around the scratching run just to encourage scratching a bit more and I turn all the vegetation over every week with a sprong. My plan is to empty out the scratching run in late spring and use it as compost.
does anyone else use this system, I have used others but this is my favourite so far. please share your experiences.
