It is indeed. But if you have free ranging hens (as I have although only

They don't just wait until they're indoors.

House-trained hens.

Unfortunately the birds pick around the meadows and under the pear trees

their unofficial deposits. I might be seen sneaking around after them with
a trowel during the hours of dusk though....
