The worse for me was on my birthday last week. It was raining a little bit so I moved the feeder up to the coop on the deck like we do in the winter. I picked it up and got stuff all over my sweater picking this heavy wood feeder up.
When we first got chickens we had a push around run/hen house. It rains here in the PNW and while I was going to check eggs and I did the slip and slide going into the area and fell on my knees and hand. OMG It was all mud in there with other stuff. After a few years of doing this I said this is it I need a new building for the chickens and I got it after spending about 3,000 building a 10x20 coop/garden building. No more mud accidents for me unless it is in the run.
