Those chickens sure are SNEAKY, and FAST!!!All the more reason why flock owners should supply their birds with insoluble grit. (if they don't have plenty of natural grit in your soil). I have very bony soil, but do supply grit during the winter. The flock attack the bowl of grit when i put it out for them when the ground is frozen. Keep those gizzards well primed with grit, so your chooks can grind all of the foolish items they decide to eat. My birds love bits of plastic. I wrap the winter run in plastic, so, it's inevitable that they will find some pieces to fight over.
