I'm always trying to find something to keep the ladies active in their run. Here is something they really enjoy: chasing a head of lettuce.
Even chickens like greens so sometimes when I'm shopping, I'll grab a head of lettuce (it's still cheap so far) and poke a wire through the stalk and hang it from the roof of the run. The chickens can poke at it without it rolling around on the ground (which is kind of fun to watch too) but this thing swings around and they all chase after it, getting their salad at the same time.
I still love the chickens; they have been a really fun addition to our urban farm.
