Catsareus Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 Hello, My eglu is sited on grass and gets moved around about every 7-10 days but I've noticed now that ants and earwigs keep moving into the eglu. I've just been brushing them away every time I go to the egg port but just wondered if they would annoy the chickens at night and get into their feathers or not? Any comments welcome. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 They will preen them off and enjoy them as a tasty snack. Nothing to worry about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frenchlayer Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 Yes I agree with Eggluntine, my go crazy for woodlice. Ants not so keen on, but do love the eggs if we find a anthill. I wouldnt worry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
