Bexiboo Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 I am wondering if I should leave the patch where the eglu and hens will be going when we get them next weekend? Would they appreciate a bit longer grass? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 Shorter grass is probably safest as hens can get crop problems if they eat long grass. Even if it is short, it's green, tasty (apparently ) and they'll love it . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 I'd mow it. Long grass can cause them problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bexiboo Posted June 7, 2008 Author Share Posted June 7, 2008 ooops sorry I put it in the wrong section I did think about where to put it (in nest box because I am chatting about the lawn or chickens because I am chatting about them lol) anyway thank you I shall mow away and long may the big, yellow ball in the sky remain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs Frugal Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 Ditto . Only liquid sunshine today . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bexiboo Posted June 7, 2008 Author Share Posted June 7, 2008 Aw sorry to hear you have no sunshine. We have had our fair share of the wet stuff recently so it is nice to be able to get the garden nice for when the girls arrive next weekend.
