ChickNic Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 Sorry, me again after some more advice... I really want to build a a big run to replace the eglu run, but unfortunatley do not have the money or space to do it. sooo, I want to make my current eglu run as interesting as possible. Does anyone have some good ideas, or better still some pictures of what they have done to make it more fun for the chickens without taking up all of their running around space? I alread have a small free standing perch and a couple of hanging feeders.... Thanks, Chicknic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 We have some Mini Disc's hanging on string from the roof, they are shinny and move in the wind, they seem to like to peck at these. I also have a small ball in the run which they like to peck at - of course we also have their dustbath full of earth and wood ash which they seem to like and I do sprinkle corn and dried raisins onto the floor so they can scratch around for food. Does this help? has it inspired you??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChickNic Posted April 9, 2008 Author Share Posted April 9, 2008 That is helpful, although I do have some of those things. However, I was wondering if anyone had made anything permanent or large that was successful. I am up for a bit of reonvating, but not sure what would be practical!

Blackrocksrock Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 Why not try on freecycle to see if anyone has some wood - you could make a run a little bigger and they could be out all the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
