Who kicked the soil off the vegetable bed and onto the path?'Ahem. A naughty rooster did it and ran away!'
Ohh, Topaz loves gravel! It must be full of little crawly things to eat because she can't see a gravel path without wanting to scratch it all up. I thought my greenhouse windows had had it - the greenhouse is surrounded on 2 sides by gravel which flew in the air and cracked ominously as the chickens hurled it against the glass.
After the chickens and I had dug over the empty bed (and they had stuffed their crops with wiggly things) I dug out one of my compost bins and this lovely crumbly stuff is the result of a mixture of hemp bedding, chicken poo and vegetable peelings. Wonderful stuff! Thank you, ladies!
