great setup bod!

I noticed you have some big grass in the run! Do the chickens leave that alone???

That's a golden fountain grass, it's 5.5' tall and since it's bigger than they are, yes they mostly leave it alone. Its dense & 3 years old so very well established. We toss other greens in there for them as well. The grass was there before the aviary, and I figured since it should live well inside the aviary, it might as well stay instead of being transplanted.

So far so good

That's excellent! A lot of people are looking for plants they can put inside the run. I'm going to try that when my run is built.

Terrific job Dawn - I'd just like to have a place in the Smokies!!! My wife and I are big fans of that area like so many people I guess!! The chicken quarters look wonderful. I like the garden idea. I have some plants outside the run that will grow into the run and get eaten every once in a while, but nothing inside it for them. Good Luck!
