We have thought about adding a windscreen to part of one side of the run where the intense summer sun and rain tend to hit.Which direction does the wind/rain normally go? We usually put tarps over the coop.
Great ideas that I will employ. Where do you get aflafa hay or do you just grow it?The run is looking good. I like WhiteWyan's ideas. A deeper tub filled with sand would make a good dust bath, and they do love to play around with alfalfa hay.
Putting things for them to hide behind or explore is always something they enjoy. Even weighted down cardboard boxes will do the trick on a temporary basis. Some chickens enjoy toys like balls, and just about all of them like to play with a head of cabbage suspended from the ceiling to a height just above their heads. It's good exercise for them.
Really like that run; clean spacious, etc.Well made!
To make it more entertaining you could add hanging old CD's or a mirror for them to look at, although your chickens may not like the mirror; mine absolutely hated it
I thought about it, but I was worried about the roosters seeing and attackingI had to laugh...I tried hanging a mirror in the run one time. Every time my EE walked past it, the mirror freaked her out. A mirror in the run didn't last long at my place.
You should be able to get alfalfa hay at any tractor supply or feed store. You might find it on Craigslist or in local ad papers like the Penny Saver as well.Great ideas that I will employ. Where do you get aflafa hay or do you just grow it?
