The last couple of days has been heavy wet snow. The chickens refused to go out. Bored chickens is a bad thing. I opened them up this morning, and they had knocked over all the chicken feeders, trashed the waterers, Knocked everything off the shelves. (I use cardboard boxes as nest boxes, and line the shelves with wax shelf paper. Makes cleanup a breeze, simply roll up the paper, toss it in the fire. toss the boxes in the fire after, and it takes 15 minutes to totally clean the chicken house, and put down new paper/boxes and fill the nest boxes with fresh hay. ) they had all the nest boxes knocked on the floor, and all the shelf paper knocked on the floor, and everything was a total disaster. Bored chickens is NOT a good thing!

How many roosters are in your coup? My girls were couped up for a couple of days last week and the only ruckus was caused by my rooster who was trying to do what roosters do best!
