Hi you guys:) I built a grazing frame for my chickens, and wouldn't you know it, I got it on video! LoL!!

The purpose in making this was to give my chickens fresh greens while they're in their pinned area! This frame allows you to grow fresh greens for them but they can only graze, they can't destroy the roots which means you will have a constant supply of greens for your girls!

I hope it is helpful, please SHARE IT:)


Also, what would you guys plant in it? I planted wheatberry in mine and my girls love it!

It makes it so they cannot dig out the root of the wheat grass:) Works great!

This is how I plant it...Nice and Easy B)




Growing in nice!

I always have little projects going for my chickens to get little snacks so it keeps them busy:)

They are easy to make and the girls love them!
