Obeying her avian masters
I am dropping flock size down to 50 birds in coming weeks. I lack the facilities needed to make the fodder for that many chickens.
Do you have space to make them grazing frames? This could stretch your grain further too.
I have made raised beds out of old tyres in the chicken run.
Herbs in the first tyre and grass in the second. I have 12 tyres in the run altogether with a mix of grass seeds and oats in most of them. They are covered in wire mesh so that the girls can't dig them out but can peck at the green that grows through. Grass, flat leaved parsley and comfrey are very popular!
