ubereglu Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 Well, as some of you know I have a largish run that my chickens live in. Recently they have been escape artists and bounding out of it every so often and gobbling up the grass. As they keep doing this; even though we kept trying to secure it more; I have now decided that they are going to have to stay in the eglu run with the convertor on. I have a washing up bowl which I can make into a dustbath. Also today they have also jumped into the fenced off bit of the garden where the grass is recovering and dug out one of the planters, so in order for the garden to recover I think that this is the best option.

Martin B Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 Mine aren't allowed out in the bad weather, and I am looking to buy a converter so I don't feel sorry for them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 That's a shame Liz, but I bet your dad isn't too happy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubereglu Posted February 19, 2007 Author Share Posted February 19, 2007 No, he just laughs at them! Mind you the garden's not in as bad a state as it was this time last year. Later in the week I'll sort out the convertor, as I think we made need to swap around some paving slabs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubereglu Posted February 25, 2007 Author Share Posted February 25, 2007 Well instead of putting the convertor on the run we now have made a little fence on the other side of the eglu run slightly away from it. This means they can no longer get out. They looked completely mystified this evening when they went into their run! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
