Father&Son Chickens

My fiancee and I purchased some chickens from BHWT (they take battery chickens before they are about to be slaughtered and sell them to public at a very cheap price (check it out!)). Whilst we had the chickens in our garden my dad came over one Sunday and we spent all day building them a massive run which was attached to my shed. They loved it! My dad and I never really spent time together when I was growing up as he was always working, so this made a great father son activity. My dad also had chickens at this time so it was great calling him up and asking for advice. Such as grinding coal up to give o the chickens is good for them. They would love it when my missus cooked potatoes and they had warm peelings or mashed potatoes. I can't wait to get more chickens.
