If you ever get the chance to visit a battery farm, I would say you should. Ex-Battery hens lead a terribly miserable life and the space these girls have (or don’t have!) in their cage truly needs seeing to believe. By keeping some chickens in the back garden, you are able to enhance their quality of life immeasurably in comparison to the humble battery hen. Haven’t got a coop? No problem! Check out this awesome project from jojochooks.wordpress.com – This article will give you step-by-step instructions – what will you need?

  • Iron Sheeting
  • Chicken Wire

  • A-frame of a Swing Set
