hijack always welcome. Im worried as we have a big property, (its rented) and im worried they will get lost or something, or eaten by something! but fencing a section in kinda blows the budget out, i looked at chicken wire and its pretty exy!
Im not much of a builder so would probably just make or buy an A frame house for them roost in with a small area to put them in when im not at home. i was thinking id just get two or three.
we have ALOT of weeds in our lawn so i hope they eat all of those casue i hate pulling them out ever two weeks!!!

We've just had our chooks out for a while, and DH mowed the lawns yesterday. He spreads the clippings like mulch, and they've been in there all night! They love that stuff
