In return the chickens deposit a little fertilizer and do a lot of the physical work of turning the soil over preparing the garden bed for you. Because its been neglected, there’s usually tasty critters hidden under the soil just waiting for the chickens to scratch up a treat. These old parts of the garden are a chicken paradise. The tunnels are like a road network system that chickens are allowed to navigate through and then emerge at their designated “work zone” in the garden, usually an area covered in weeds or an old garden bed that needs some attention.
#Movable chicken tunnel series
In a previous post we mention creating a series of wire “tunnels” that emerge from the chicken coop and direct chickens to work zones around the garden. They don’t seem to listen and wander about blissfully digging up your garden, making mounds in your vegetable patch, spraying dirt all over the place as they go hunting for bugs, worms and insects. Modular Chicken Tunnels help direct chickens to improve garden bedsĪlthough allowing your chickens to free-range a great idea, getting them to just stay on the grass and not destroy your garden is not an easy thing to do.
