HI folks,
we've been up and running now for two weeks and (touch wood) have four happy chooks and no Mr Fox yet! Can I ask to anyone who has mobile coops, how often they rotate them and also how often they clean the ground of poo? There are maybe three, possibly four places that I can fit the run (on the allotment grass) and coup so want to make sure that I protect the ground and also give the chooks a good base. I've seen that some people have mentioned 'hosing down' the ground to clear it, is that good practice?
Wer'e delighted to now be bought egg free as three of the girls have started laying mmmmm.!
