Chicken Location Change

We have kept chickens in an 'Eglu' for the last 6 years. As part of our Permaculture garden design we decided to locate them more intentionally. So we moved them from being 35 foot away from the back door to being 8 foot from the front door. The result has been spectacular.

We now feed the chickens nearly 30% of what went into our grey bin. They eat 95% of our waste food. It has saved us on chicken pellets. The passers by stop to look. Their children feed them bread. We have made more freinds with our local community. And we have a closer appreciation and awareness of our chickens.
The chickens have turned from a chore, into a blessing, simply by relocating them.
