How to raise Backyard Chickens: Re: [CHICKENS-101] ]How many chickens in a 10x10 coop?? Now enrichment, also! :)

Yes Catherine, my local feed store manager suggested the alfalfa. Do you have trouble with mice and rats possibly nesting in it? I'll keep mine in a shed near the coop. Haven't seen a mouse yet out there ( coop or shed ) but we've got mice in the house all year long. Always at least a couple and we're overrun with chipmunks outside. Come to think of it since Irene, haven't seen nearly as many chipmunks.
