Hens need grit - as explained here .
 | |
| Spray, at a distance |
 |
| a wave or few |
One of our excess cockerels went to a neighbour , who said the gizzard was full and the birds needed more grit. Obvious really - there is a lot of mud here at the moment and the hens will be getting enough of that but anything insoluble will probably be washed away .
And our neighbour recommended a spot that was ideal for collecting grit.
So early one morning , we went with some buckets
Its a bit windy ,so we took a few other pictures as well
And some grit for the hens
