On nice days we have been letting our girls out of their run to free range our yard between the patches of snow. They absolutely love it and have come to expect it. I noticed this morning that our daffodils are starting to emerge from one of the areas the chickens have been pecking and scratching in. Now I'm worried that they will destroy the daffodils if I let them out. Any thoughts or experiences with this problem? Will they destroy the daffodil bulbs?
I would cover them up so they can grow up and strong. Got a ton of trampled iris that chickens walk over and break all the little stems down tot he ground. They do manage to flower every year though.
Wow! You guys are great! Thanks for the fast response. I guess I'll let them out and see what happens. The girls will appreciate the help, too.
wow those daffodils look great! Mine are only 1/2 " up so far, then it got colder and they stopped in their tracks.
I just wanted to say...That is so not fair Rooster-Red! Beautiful flowers. Mine stayed away from the flowers, but I think it was just purely luck. My tomatoes were murdered by the hens and I didn't get but one or two of them. I had to make fried green tomatoes, because the second they got some red on them, they got devoured!
