duckish delight Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 Sorry this might be a silly question. I get a lot of wildlife in my garden, especially birds which I really love. I am a bit concerned as to weather chickens would discourage the birds from using the garden or does this make no difference??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
storminstaffs Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 makes no difference we get loads of wild birds visiting our allotment where the chickens are kept Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tidygirlsuk Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 I read that chickens attract wildlife and i have to agree. My next door neighbours leave alsorts of bird feeders out for different bird species and they complain that they dont get eaten. I only leave food out in the winter and i get loads of birds.

Egluntyne Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 It makes no difference at all. Our garden Robin thinks he's a chicken. He often joins in with the girls when I throw them some corn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olly Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 I'd echo that - I think I've seen more birds since I got the chickens. By the way, there's no such thing as a silly question on this forum! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
