We use old hay and bedding out of the chicken house, along with leaves in the fall, so come spring, underneath is nice and fluffy, but I've heard paper and leaves do the trick, too. Works great for me.:) <BR/><BR/>There's some pics of my yard last year <A HREF="http://www.flickr.com/photos/nifty" REL="nofollow">here</A>.fjbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13120081721262176259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23768728.post-18237297222699119532009-03-27T23:49:00.000-04:002009-03-27T23:49:00.000-04:00The snow's almost all gone in my yard finally and ...The snow's almost all gone in my yard finally and the chickens are thoroughly enjoying the few carrots I left in the ground last fall.

I was outside for a bit preparing for my corn. I have tons of composted leaves up back so I might use those extensively if not exclusively.<BR/> I may end up no till gardening with raised beds. I have done it a few times in the past and it works well.
