We are preparing to get my first chickens. We live in the woods (no yard at all). I have a good idea and plans laid out for a coop. The area that we want to keep them in the front of the house is about .15-.25 acres. I plan on putting some sort of fence up to keep them in that area (off the road, neighbors property, out of the dogs play area, out of trouble.....)
My question is do i need a fence that will protect them from predators during the day? I understand that letting your chickens free range comes with that risk. If the answer is no does anyone have any recommendations on a a very low visibility fence/netting to keep them contained and how tall. If Yes any recommendations and how tall.
Thanks
