So – you’ve got chickens and have noticed that they peck and scratch everything. We call them our “volunteer gardeners” because we don’t ask them to garden, they just do it.

We tried penning ours up with a bird cloth run, and they spent the first morning just looking (and finding) a way under it. What’s a responsible chicken keeper to do? Entertain them with enrichment in their run. Keep them busy so they…

Decorating the chicken coop

The mobile chicken coop is almost finished. I spent most of yesterday trying to make it comfortable for my feathered friends, installing perches and nesting boxes. I had to shoo them out so I could work without them freaking out every time I moved here or there. First job was to install perches.

If people have beds, then chickens have perches or roosts. And just like beds, chicken perches should be properly designed and built to be comfortable for the chickens to roost at night! Yes there are certain features that make a good chicken perch but there is definitely nothing difficult about making one. As long as you take note of some simple reminders, your chickens will be happy with their roost. Happy chickens >> lots of eggs :)
