I've decided I'm going to give up on flowerbeds. The chickens just destroy them. I'm just so frustrated.
I dug a ton of perennials this morning at my Aunts and brought them home. Got it all tilled, got them all planted and went down the driveway to get some mulch from our big pile. I was gone about 15 minutes.
Come back up the driveway to find the entire flock dustbathing in my freshly planted bed. It's destroyed and out of the 9 plants I put in, 2 were salvageable.
Does anyone have a method of keeping them out that doesn't include fencing? I really don't want to fence.
Thanks in advance-
