Raising Chickens
This demonstrates a great cycle... household waste can feed an animal .... that feeds us and poops great manure ... for the garden that grows the food .... that produces the waste that feeds the hens etc .... Of course hens/chickens will also eat the weeds and any bugs that the children want to donate... cockroaches are a favorite the egg shells can be crushed up and returned to the hens as grit. Children will love watching the hens dust bath, a very interesting concept.
Great tips on how to raise chickens:
