Program Details

At The Dig House we have two set of chickens, the ‘freeloaders’ and the Silkies.
We breed silkies as they make great pets, so expect to have baby chicks about!
We have a few chicken coops that need attention and care, some just painting, some need some more dedicated repairs.

Part of your role, you will help us do this much needed repair work as well as look after the day to day care of the chickens.
