Chickens on pinestraw?

emyers
14 years ago

Planning on getting some chickens at some point. Trying to figure out a good place to put them in my yard.

We live way out in the woods with pine forest all around.

Next to my house there is a stand of pine trees that was row planted and 5th row thinned.

Was wondering if I could staple some fencing to the trees and make a yard for chickens.

It would have filtered sunlight.

The yard can be as large as I need it to be.

Could also incorporate a grassed area if their would be some benefit to that.

Also thinking some goats.... possibly in the same area?

Thinking they could keep the weeds down that grow up in the straw, so that I could still use the straw around my flower beds.

Is this possible?

Any problems with the idea?
