While visiting Jackie yesterday we took a quick trip to the allotments and picked some chard for our girls and dug up some more dandelions.
The dandelions with not much root went into the run this morning for the girls and the ones with good roots went into a pot by the chicken run gate. I plan on putting the pot in for the girls to strip then bringing it out to regrow.

Peaches is checking out the pot. These girls are so spoilt.

Only people like you and me go round digging up dandelions. You are a little different you plant them too.
I went one better than you today I took a pot with a lid to the allotments and went digging for worms.
So next time you come bring a tub with you. There are thousands of them 🙂
You are right about people like you and I. I did dig over the run yesterday afternoon and found loads of worms for the girls which was fun. They were all running around like crazy which gives them exercise too.
I’ve seen her dandelion patch! We try to get rid of them and she’s growing them!
I know, I know, and now they have their own pot too! This is what chickens have done to me.
