Chickens in your Garden?

12 years ago

I have roughly a 26x40 garden. I wanted to put chickens in it and was wondering what would be the best kind and how many. I want some that will keep un-wanted bugs,animals,birds,ect. out. I was also wondering what they will eat of my plants i have onions,peppers,tomatoes,

cucumbers,cabbage,zechuni,pumpukins,and parsely.

Thanks,

Noah Swita

They might not eat all of the parsley, everything else they like. I wouldn't do it.
