Having free range chickens is great - you can spend hours watching them peck around the garden and the eggs are of course a massive bonus. The downside is that they sometimes like to dig up and eat plants that we would like to keep. The rooster started eating blueberry flowers the other day, so we decided not to risk our (probably) measly strawberry crop. After much consideration to who likes who in the vegetable world, we decided that the strawberries would move in with the beans. Hopefully, this will keep them at safe distance from the greedy chickens!
