Essentials
Space to walk around - Chickens need to scratch a lot! This way the nails stay trimmed and so they can walk properly. Chickens love to walk around! Also they are easy to educate to go back to sleep in their little house on their own at night time. So even if you are out, when is time to go to bed, they will go inside their house.
An area with sand/soil - so they can bath. Having a sand bath is a very important moment of the day for their personal hygiene, mainly helps to keep parasites away. And is really fun to watch them doing it
Sunshine - Chickens need the sun! During the day they will occasionally lay laterally on the floor, spreading their wings to enjoy the sun. It is also good against parasites.
Greens and proteins - In a chicken diet they can`t miss. It is important to keep them healthy.
Egg shells - when you use your eggs don't trough away the shells, instead cook them in the oven at 160 degrees for about 20 minutes, smash them and add the powder to their food. This will make sure your eggs will have a super strong and thick shell.
