I worry that my chickens will get bored because I'd get bored if I were a chicken and did the same thing every day. I listened to one of Temple Grandin's books recently, and she says a chicken in a small cage will be entertained by a string. I guess they never get bored of the same toy like pigs do. I'm not sure how I'd use a string to entertain a chicken, but I figure if all a chicken in a cage needs is a string, then my chickens should be fine. They have the whole yard to play in and one another to play with.
