After culling the chooks it was time to set up the garden for the chooks arriving in December.
Liz used bird netting to cover the roof, but it didn't stretch all the way over and down to the ground, so setting up a little bit of a resistance figured that some of that green plastic netting would suffice.
She dug over an area and had the kids sprinkle wheat down.
Next she moved some parsley and comfrey which is apparently a great alternative for the blood and bone component of the layers mash that you can buy.
Thankfully it rained... you can imagine what a dessert was left after 12 chooks vacated.
Two days later however, wheat seeds are missing, so back to the drawing board on that side of things... still at least the ground is a little softer.
