Hi,
I am planning on welcoming chickens into my backyard which at the moment is kentucky blue grass. I am hoping to have a movable chicken run area. Has anyone found that chickens will scratch sod grass to the point of bare soil? I am wondering if it is possible to re-seed my lawn with a more functional ground cover (than grass) after the chickens have cleared the area. Has anyone had sucesss with this technique?
Appreciate any ideas or suggestions.
thanks,
