minature Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 Hi there I have recently taken on a new job which means that my chooks will be in their run more than before (I only let them in the garden when I am at home) I am worried they are going to become bored so I am after some ideas to entertain them. x2, Sunny and Spirit x3 Ruby, Flame, Gertrude, x1 Matilda plus 3 orpington chicks 5 weeks old, no names yet!

minature Posted August 4, 2011 Author Share Posted August 4, 2011 Thank you ever so much for the link. there are some great ides on there, Mine already have various perches and branches, dust baths etc so I like the idea of the ball filled with treats. (there is no point me hanging a cabbage as greedy Ruby rips it down and gobbles it in minutes) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(there is no point me hanging a cabbage as greedy Ruby rips it down and gobbles it in minutes) Mine STILL don't like dangly things And I put a peck block in for them a few weeks ago and it remains untouched I guess they're content just chucking all the woodchip out of the run and onto my patio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
