It seems that chicken are pretty fond of lawn weeds too.
chickens will strip an area bare if you let
them stay in one place for long. they scratch
the ground for any grubs, roots, ants, etc.
often in permaculture setups where you rotate
plant people use chickens to clear an area
before planting veggies. they prep the ground
and fertilize it too.
i can't bring myself to keep chickens. i
use worms instead and do the garden prep
myself (smothering or shallow digging with a
shovel).
