After all the rain and snow the leaf layer on the ground is still wet and the moisture has made the moss very happy.
The chickens are digging up the layers of wet leaves to get down to dirt that they can scratch through to find some tasty grub.
I've noticed that the hens especially like to scratch around the base of the trees. There must be some really good thing to find.
Two more mostly sunny days and then we are back to rain and thunder storms. I am being very lazy and not doing much of anything and I blame it on the weather. I've got lots to do and I want sun and warm days.

Our chickens love to dig around the bases of our trees too, must be some prime bugs there!
My chickens like to scratch in the woods also. They have lots of layers of dead leaves to scratch through.
That is me, I have been very lazy lately and I also blame it on the weather. i have one heck of a time getting out of the rut I am in.
I love watching my chickens scratch around and eat all those goodies!! Be lazy once in awhile and enjoy those moments!! Have a great day!~~Rain
