Chickens eat watermelon! So do ducks!

It's so nice living somewhere that gets some light

fun fowl fact

If you dump old leaves from last fall (now with bugs!) into the chicken coop where grass used to be, the ladies have a field day. Even the ducks get into it.
I am experimenting with a baby pool, one step up from their current wading ponds.
