Chicken Tunnel! My Most Random Build Yet?

Avian flu lockdown is a right pain, the chickens are certainly missing their outside time. 

So I used some of my row protection from the garden to create chicken tunnels to give them extra space. An extra 46ft of run in fact! It's great. 

Watch the video below to see my most random build in ages! 

Let me know what you think! The chickens love it!

  1. Good use of resources. Now I'm studying your row covers to see how you made those.

    1. Ah, they were dead simple, just a 3x2 frame with blue pipe screwed to it. I won't have them for the veg garden again though, they get in the way too much.

  2. PS have you read about Polyface Farm? They house their chickens in things on skid so they can drag them across the paddocks for a new bit of ground each day. They use the chickens to keep earth level bugs and animal parasite eggs under control - the cleaning team so to speak.

  3. Feeding the hens and they clear the weeds and grass and and feed the ground. Good idea.
