Composting for your hens





So here are the girls looking for bugs. They love going through the pile of leaves. Shortly after taking this picture they jumped in and starting kicking the leaves aside looking for worms. They have such keen eyesight that they will see the slightest movement and be right on that bug or grub. I have been a composter for many years and thought maybe I should compost for my hens. I am designing plans for a worm bin that will not only serve my fishing and composting needs but will also give me a good supply of worms for the hens especially in the winter when the natural supply of bugs has gone dormant.

Watch for more info in upcoming posts. I have research to do on worm bins.
