RE: Keeping Chickens is Super Fun & Valuable to the Sustainable Homestead! Here Are 4 Things for the Beginner to Consider

in #gardening8 years ago

I am surprised they do not like tomatoes or avocados, I figured they would like most fruits. When I was young my dad use to have a nice flock of them in our house in Cuba. They ran around all day and would sleep in the trees. Cuba is the perfect place to raise them lose because they do not have many natural predators. No Foxes, coyotes, or racoons in the country and their only real predators there are boas, weasels, and falcons, but we did not have any of those in town where we lived. They where very happy chickens eating tons of dry corn and rice that my dad would have left over from farming. Not to mention all the bugs and fruits that where in our yard.
