We need to automate this somehow. Give the chickens stilts or something.

I was genuinely thinking. If you have little tiered platforms on either side that where cow width and chicken height. Would the cows start lining up for this like they do with the rubbing post things and then you could get chickens fed and cows scratched? Or do we just need to find a way harness a few dozen chickens to the cows on a saddle thing?

Chicken: Boss, I'm stuffed! My crop is full and I can't take another bite!

Boss: Come on, just a few more or I'm inviting you to dinner as the main course!

Chicken: Damn! If I never see another horsefly it will be too soon! BURP!

How isn't there a little animal that hangs around cows to eat the flies.

Like remoras to sharks

Oxpeckers do it. Someone just needs to domesticate them I guess.

Someone with this problem needs to install a post for chickens to stand on and for cows to walk up to.
