Karen & co. Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 Hi Bexter I have a large plastic saucer from under an out side plant pot, approx 2' across, that I have in the new chook eglu, but the other girls make their own under bushes, in the greenhouse or the middle of the lawn the saucer is full of soil compost and a bit of sand from the childrens' sand pit Good luck with your new girls karen x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
