Game cover crops
« on: April 04, 2013, 03:24:35 pm »
This may be a silly question, but would a game cover crop (kale / maize etc) be suitable for poultry?

 We've got a spare plot about 75ft square, right next to the poultry area and I was thinking of planting something that would provide chickens & ducks with some extra space, cover & feed in the autumn / winter.  Also maybe the turkeys could have a plot?   
Sheep: North Ronaldsay & 4 Horned Hebridean - We also breed & exhibit 3 breeds of rabbit - Chinchilla, Deilenaar (rare breed) & Colour Pointed English Angora.
