Put your chickens out in a tractor on that lawn. They thrive on dandelions.
My meat birds can make an entire plant disappear in seconds!
My hens won't touch 'em, unless there is nothing else in the run. :/

the meaties are only 6 days old. Didn't get the tractors built this weekend, hopefully during the week this week.

I was looking up dandelion wine making....

Oh yeah, I had to cull one of the meaties this evening. It couldn't walk right and two others kept standing on it. :(

Dandelion wine is good! And just dandelion greens lightly sauteed in salted butter is wonderful too.

Day 9 for the new girls. No pictures of the meaties. For them, the cuteness phase is over. Ugly phase is beginning.. :)
