[QUOTE="J.P., post: 203683, member: 5999"] i had the same idea once. i thought it was romantic to have some chickens roaming the yard. found out that chickens peck on the plants just as they would on the bugs. and their poop, aside from being unsanitary, would kill the grass. so i ended up keeping them in a coop. but i pitied the poor things, so i had to give them away to a friend who did not mind bald plants and "landmines". i get to have fresh eggs as royalty. about the snakes, i like them too. very useful for keeping rodent populations down. but when a lot of dangerous ones pose a threat to the family or the chickens, getting a guinea fowl or two would rid your yard of snakes. sadly, they do not choose between harmless and posionous species.
