Side note: I will not be posting questions of the day on Sundays, and maybe not on Saturdays. I will tell you if I have a vacation, cause then I would not be able to post either.

Wonderful!
Just curious, why do you do meat hens?
And is your flock one encaged all the time?
Like, do they get grass?

We don’t do meat hens they are just pets, I don’t think I could ever do that, I get too attached to them
They are engaged all the time, we let our last flock free-range sometimes, and they started constantly pacing wanting to be out of the cage. Our hens are content with their cage, we pick them clovers, dandelions, and other plants, so they do get stuff.

Sorry, I miss understood. That is wonderful!
I couldn't handle having meat hens either. I do wish though that I could have indoor chickens.
