I still like the idea turning chickens out into the garden once the plants are going strong. Seems like a good insect control and fertilization project.

Chickens will tear your garden apart. The manure is good though.

Guineas might be better for insect control. Not so great for eggs though. My great aunt had guineas for her garden. They’re also good watch animals. No one can just walk up to your house without being announced.

Well, I kinda thought that too, but according to the guy who wrote a book on it, not so after the plants are well established. He says they just go after the bugs etc.LOL

I’ll take your word for it.
