The happy chicken report

Recently, we surveyed our Welcome Home Nature club members about their chickens. Using 10 questions, we found out to what extent their chickens lived a happy life in the garden. 

The results show that the chickens can be quite happy with their owners. Indeed, the Welcome Home Nature members achieved a nice average score of 77.1% on their happy chicken report. 

The essential needs of laying feed and water are sufficiently provided in the majority of our chicken runs. With 82.7% and 85.9% respectively, they achieve high scores. On top of that, our chickens also regularly get food scraps on the menu. As many as 96.7% of respondents use their chickens as scraps processors. 

Dietary supplements such as grit and vitamins, like snacks, score lower than basic feed mixtures. Still, some 70% of our chickens enjoy additional food and grit.

Coop maintenance (78.4%) usually gets sufficient attention. This ensures that most chickens (72.5%) generally never suffer from blood lice. In terms of space, the score is lower (60.3%). But of course, you can just let your chickens run outside the run. As many as 72.5% of our chickens occasionally get the freedom and so their owners can enjoy some extra tasty free-range eggs.
