What don't Chickens / Ducks eat :?:
« on: November 15, 2008, 15:52 »
Everything is fine and my Hens and Ducks could not be happier.........but they have eaten everything in there pen (18 'x 30 ') ish.

I have noticed the only thing left in other peoples pens are stingy nettles.
Is there anything else I can grow just to make the pen look a bit greener ?
??? I'd give my right arm to be ambidextrous... ???

Well mine don't eat rosemary. That's about it :?
Be like a duck. Calm on the surface but always paddling like the dickens underneath.

My chooks have run of a big shrubbery.  They love it, and it gives them a great feeling of security from all the eagles  :roll:

We have a very small pine tree in the run. They don't eat that at all. And it's great for throwing corn into where it stays until they find it.  :)

There are also some bulbs in there which are spring flowering so we'll see if any of the top growth survives. Think I know the answer  :roll:
