Title: Chicken food
Post by: Quirkyhens on February 05, 2021, 19:36
Hey,
Can anyone clarify if chicken food can be left outside in their run overnight (mine hangs off the ground) or should I pop it into the garage?

Hi and welcome  :)

I always recommend taking feeders out of the run overnight.  Even if they are suspended, the smell will attract rodents and they will start tunnelling into the run.

Yes, some very blatant ones as well. Only one good thing, they don't come into the house.
