Chickens Eating Each Other Literally

[27strong]

silly pictures...that is NOT what my chickens do. They dig bunkers until only their head is above the dirt. Then partially twist themselves in their fox holes and get ****** off at other chickens around them. Because they are trying to get in there. They absolutely have no tolerance for side to side dirt rolling. Anyway I got that vicks thing. I will provide finishing updates on how its doing.

Chickens dig. They have their favorite low spots and they all try to pile into the same space. Even if you don't see them flinging dirt, it's all part of it. Now, if they are digging a hole to lay an egg, I'd suggest making your nesting boxes darker..............

I have a few trees growing in the wrong place in my yard, and I personally hope they keep digging around the roots and kill the thing(s) finally. That will sure save me work!
