More Benefits of Having Plants with Your Backyard Chickens

Үй жануарлары мен аңдар

Two of RSM's favorite hobbies are gardening, and chicken tending. And it is possible to enjoy both, together! As a clarification to her "Chickens and Your Garden" playlist, let's look at some of the secondary benefits to adding plants in with your backyard chickens. It takes a bit of planning and some extra work, but in RSM's opinion it can be so worth it, for so many reasons! And see a special guest at the end of this video (who has eight legs).

    Thanks for this informative video, lots of good ideas! In our backyard the coop ( already built) is where there are not any trees for shade so planting some big bushes and a shade cloth makes so much sense! 🤗

    I would be careful as the plant itself is a nightshade and thus poisonous to them. My chickens seem to know that it’s toxic so they don’t touch the plant and let them grow. ✌🏻❤️🐓
