Squatters

When we cleared the old site of the chicken coops, I was interested to see what was left behind. Luckily we didn't find a whole warren of rats' nests - just one hole and one little nest which was rather cute, even if it was occupied by a slug.



In the coops themselves, we found lots of wood lice and ants. I guess that neither are appetising to chickens. Either that or they're both too quick for our dozy birds. The ants were certainly zipping about, rehoming all their eggs, after we disturbed them.
