Bondinho Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 Lovely girls. That grass is holding up well after 19 days! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAJ Posted February 15, 2008 Author Share Posted February 15, 2008 Thanks for your comments - I have another photo of them all on top of the run which I will try and load up later. I have to say the bluebelle is my favourite too - not only does she look lovely, she is very friendly and has feed from my hand from day one. As to the grass they do get let out - then I find the grass in the run looks better than outside! Also we have guinea pigs which we move around the garden every 2-3 days - they eat the grass down, then chooks go on after, so it is not too long for them to eat - so far so good - not sure it would keep going like this for a whole winter though.

Richard Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 and I've jsut noticed - they've got sprouts! Now I don't want to start off the tirade, like I did before when I said I love sprouts (devils's somethings someone called them), but I reckon they are great for humans and for chickens. sprouts Marvellous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
