Too many bugs for confined hens?

Mine like the skeletons too. Chicken chips!

I haven't tried to see if mine would eat them or not. I feel like the skeletons are so big for my little 5 week bantams, lol.

That sounds awesome! So, sort of like a chicken tractor?

I normally free range, but right now I have a huge mixed flock of different ages, and unfortunately the smallest ones would make great hawk lunch.
But that is a great idea!

Exactly like one. We used parachute cord tied on each side to pull it with. It also was a good way to split up our pullets from the older gals. Kinda like a timeout for everyone

You’d be surprised….
Last year I had a two-day old chick swallow a grasshopper the size of it’s head!

That sounds awesome! I should definitely try something like that!
