The system with new lettuce transplants. A few observations on our system so far: 1. Chickens will persist in returning to the grow beds once they know about you tasty salad greens. Make sure you have good latches on your gates. 2. Worms are fine in this continuous flow system. We noticed a few fat ones when digging holes in the gravel for the lettuce transplant (which were replacing the chicken’s damage). We also noticed a pleasant earthy smell to the gravel bed, no anaerobic odors. 3. The system did not freeze over the recent nightly dip into the teens and the koi are fine. A greenhouse top for the growbeds is on the list of projects. -- source link
