Subject: Poultry on Pasture FAQ

Hi Andy:

We're a diversified market garden with fruits, berries and one walnut tree,a
CSA, a laying flock of about 400 and pastured poultry.  We use many
different techniques with our pastured poultry ie poultry netting, chicken
tractors, sometimes free-range, staying as fluid as possible to meet
changing demands.  The one structure I always maintain is to have birds at
least once on the beds during the year, hopefully twice.
