ADDING CHICKENS TO THE COMPOST

in #ghsc6 years ago

It not only gets them moved to the land, but also puts them to work!


We like to not only have animals, but also to have them do some work for us. When we were examining our compost pile, we noticed a lot of tasty creatures crawling around in it. Since it should be stirred frequently, we thought that by adding a couple chickens, they could help stir it up and get a tasty meal in the process.

We ran back to the current chicken pen and grabbed "Dave the Chick," Cayenne, Pete Moss, and their mother. Soon, they were enjoying their time on the land, as we show in the video. Enjoy it!

I hope you kids washed and disinfect their hands after handling the chickens.

Not a joke. E-coli infections are up this year due to Backyard chickens being treated as pets. As a grandpa, kids are always putting their hands in their mouth. Not a good combination

Our compost begins with the chickens. My goats are quite disgusted with the arrangement as that means most kitchen treats bypass them. But chickens make the most amazing compost! With goatie droppings and plenty of comfrey your gardens will thrive!

Cool! I've got comfrey and plenty of goat droppings!

Great Post 😆

Now it's looking like a homestead with chickens on the land. :-)

very creative in making chicken claws as a compost mixer ...

Ingenious way to get that compost stirred and fertilized at the same time!

Moar poo to da compost!!!!

hahaha very cool. I love the names of your chickens! haha :) composts are awesome. It is interesting here in the Phoenix area, we have a very clay like soil. cliche. So we have to add all kinds of wood chips, mulch, compost, etc. before we can grow much. I don't worry about it too much, since I just use potting soil in my pots. haha but when I do get a house with a yard, I will have to really treat the soil, before I can start planting. It will be a fun process for sure.
