For the past two or three years I have had trouble keeping my chickens out of the garden. I would put up fences to keep them out, but two or three of them would always find a way to get in. They love the open dirt where they can scratch for bugs, worms, grubs and small aggregate for their gizzards, but they inevitably tear up the plants in doing so. Besides that they also eat the foliage off of many garden plants.
I had a voila moment this morning when I looked out at the chicken coop and saw this:
Apparently they don't like to walk around in three inches of snow.
So now, all I have to do is figure out how to keep a three inch barrier of snow around my garden this year.
