Dear #chickensofmastodon and #gardening communities, how do you keep your chickens from devastating your vegetables?
I've got a raised bed that needs to be fenced in with metal wire, and they still get in, and built a ground-level vegetable patch fenced in by a bamboo fence (which I thought would be enough - laughable in hindsight).
As the garden year is winding down I'm thinking about fall planting some green manure (not possible in the ground-level patch currently) and structural changes, so give me all your tricks!
I need the little dinosaurs to keep their claws and beaks off my veggies next year!
