Hi Everyone,
I have recently obtained 3 chickens. The classic brown hens...
I live in South Australia.
I am a veterinary nurse, so I've assisted in more medical and surgical procedures on chickens (mostly cats and dogs though) - rather than knowing how to keep them day to day.
I'd be interested to know if anyone on this site is from Australia too and to learn how chickens think...
I am curious to know if there is a way to keep them from picking the good stuff out of their feed and scattering the rest all over the place. I'm considering a pellet instead of a grain mix.
Thanks in advance, hope to get to know some of you well :-)
