Chicken Fun Zone

It's a bit dull beings chicken at the moment. There's no fresh grass to be had and the weather's cold and miserable. In short, chickens are looking a bit bored and fed up. So this week I've invented the chicken fun zone. It's just a pile of large logs, and I've added a couple more since the photo was taken so it's somewhat bigger now. But it gives the chooks an area to climb on and stick their heads into to look for grubs. I hid some meal worms in it and they spent an hour prowling round it looking for every last crumb. Hopefully it will attract a few wood lice and worms too. It may not be fresh grass but it does seem to give them a few minutes distraction.
