You can build your own water garden, complete with goldfish, captured rainwater and hyacinths that can serve as hydroponic chicken treats.
Sometimes a chicken (or more than one) will die of mysterious circumstances, but a poultry necropsy—post-mortem examination—can often provide details.
Chicken runs are great for protecting birds from predators, and rotational grazing can ensure healthy, nutritious pasture for your flock to enjoy.
You don’t have to live on a rural route to own chickens. Raising urban chickens within the city limits is quite possible with the right preparation.
