Linda,
I have chickens around the farm that are destined for the soup bowl.
They do not weed while they are looking for insects and seed, but do a
wonderful job of scratching up rows of iris. Try as I might to instruct
them in the botanical differences, chickens are not good pupils. After
enlarging their pen, we no longer have a problem.
P.S. The only one we will save is my daughters favorite, "Red".
