Default Preparing to keep chickens

I have a chicken house and run which have not bee used for over five
years. The house is in good condition but the run, which is quite a
large area, has become completely over-run with nettles.


Knowing how chooks can turn any area into a desert, I wouldn't bother
to clean it up. The chooks will do it well enough.



The only fear there is them becoming crop bound
