Does that mean the stuff I've got - millet spray sold for budgies etc - is no good for me to grow :?:

What fab ideas thanks folks!
Lucyeff - mine have been banned to their quarters because we had "poo city" outside the patio doors the same as you. With 2 small kids whizzing in and out it became an "issue" with oh, one I couldn't argue with. No matter how often I "poo picked" oh always managed to stomp in the biggest sloppiest one

Its great to make sure "the girls" are happier with some inexpensive toys.
Thanks again

Ness, you're household sounds the same as ours, lol! OH isn't impressed though - I used his slippers to go out 'poo picking'

seeing as he lets the chooks out randomly. There's a thread on here about pumpkin seeds, not sure about pumpkin but mine definitely don't like banana :roll:

I would never dream of opening the run while my oh's at work then shutting them back in their run and madly "poo pick" 5 mins before hes due home.
