Chickens They want out ! ! !


Put the food out, camera on and STAND BACK.
The chickens come out of the barn for breakfast.
These birds love their first feed of the morning and are the same every day.
We use mash, which is a corn and maize mix to fill them up before they start the days scratting.

Later they have left overs and lettuce before 2 more corn feeds a day.

The result 9 hens and an average of 4 - 7 fresh eggs a day.
We haven't bought an egg for a whole year.
We also don't have a lawn now because of them but what the hell - No Weeding either.
