Yes it is on grass, although it is a permanent site as the run is 9 x 18 and is screwed to sleepers which have wire on them that goes 2 feet + into ground as an anti fox device!
They will be allowed out into the paddock when we are in the fields grooming, mucking out etc but rather alot of foxes around here.
I was considering hemicore for the run, but not sure of its benefits, but I realise my run will be a mud bath within days - although the run does have a clear plastic roof, but my DH and pal forgot to seal it on so it leaks at the joins - it is a poultry protection pen actually the set up at the bottom of the page is similar to mine.
Also what food scraps do they like and how much can they have without getting a compacted crop (?) I know they like sweetcorn and pasta, my DS is a fussy so and so we allways have food leftovers.
Raw carrot, parsnip peelings go to ponies and bunnies, raw cabbage and broc go to buns, bread, cake, biscuits go to ponies but what about all the cooked veg that my fussy DS leaves can the chooks have that?
We are leaving now so we can be the first ones there!
DD is beside herself and DS keeps clucking!
