Would rather be gardening
Tonight I realized quite late at night that I forgot to close up the coop for our free ranging chickens. We’ve just had a big rainstorm, but I was still surprised when I got down there and found…a ton of slugs. There must’ve been at least thirty huge slugs; on the feeder mostly, but also on the walls of the run, the ground, etc. Has anyone seen this before? What the heck is going on?? As bugs go, I don’t really mind slugs, but this is bizarre. I’ve found slugs in the coop at night before and they always disappear before daylight, so I assume that they don’t pose any danger to the flock. I’m mostly just curious why this happens. I thought slugs like to eat plants.
