Does anyone here pasture their chickens? I guess it's just a fancy way to say you're free ranging them, my goal is to absolutely minimize my feed costs on my first personal flock. The majority of the chickens I've raised have been free ranged, but I haven't got that luxury. My plan is to establish a run that is seeded with the following seed blend:
Great Plains seed blend
What I need is more information regarding how I need to manage the run. I will be fencing the area immediately outside the coop and running 6 red star hens, they'll have AT LEAST 250 square feet to play with, and their wings will get clipped to save me a little money. All tips are appreciated.
