RE: The Dilemma of Free Range Chickens
We use a pasture pen measuring 50' x 50' and moved every week. It's big enough for 90 birds and has a circus tent hawk deterrent. We've been using it for 10 years now very successfully. I'll be doing a post on it sometime in the next few months.
Nice solution! We don't have a lot of open ground so it might be difficult to do something like that. But, we actually got rid of all of our chickens and got about 50 Muscovy ducks. They have been better than the chickens as far as staying off our deck and house area goes. I look forward to seeing your post -- you seem like you have some great ideas!
