I've been researching alternative feeding regimes for hens using food and garden waste. Whilst not being of interest to big commercial producers, these systems make a lot of sense for smallholders and home keepers to consider.
Well Thursday's snow caused consternation in the flock who sent Chocky down to check things out before following her. Egg production on the increase as the days are getting longer. No news is good news on the Avian flu front.
It's pretty cold here at the moment, -8 C last night, which means we have to help our hens cope with the cold winter. It's a bit of extra work but not too much and anyway they're well worth it.
