Washingtonians Come Together! Washington Peeps

from the Wise Greek;

It's easy to assume that the word "cyanide" is always synonymous with a deadly poison. Chemically speaking, however, cyanide describes a triple bond between carbon and nitrogen atoms. This carbon-nitrogen combination can be combined with metals or other elements to form any number of compounds or salts, such as potassium cyanide, sodium cyanide or hydrogen cyanide. It is also found naturally in sugars, cassava roots, large fruit pits and tobacco leaves.
 
Try the 3 sisters method. Plant corn with beans and squash.

One good description of how to do it. http://www.almanac.com/content/companion-planting-three-sisters
I'm going to try this. I already have corn growing. I planted it just to see if it would grow it was from bird feed. I know it's not the type of corn people eat, I don't eat corn anyway. But that would make a great pole for the beans to grow up. and I have a part of my yard that is about 2ft taller then the rest of the yard i removed all grass and weeds and planned to plant there :)

Jess, can you just keep them out of the hutch and make a makeshift nest on the ground in their section of the run? I think you might have more success with that. The ramp can be tricky for some chicks to grasp.
I'm contemplating hacking off the legs of the hutch...that might work too...
Got my first EE egg today. Nice green egg. My brother can now have green eggs and ham. Hahaha

Oh! The females are gorgeous too! Look at the blue on her wing and those eyes!

My grandmother used to have mandarin ducks. Did you know they mate for life? If their partner dies, they do not choose another. I used to make feather earrings out of all the feathers form her mandarins, and all the phesants she had
