My chickens have a 10x6 indoor coop and a 10x5 outdoor coop which is covered and has a trench to keep predators out. As of now, they are completely safe. Unfortunately even though it sounds big it is really not. I have 16 chickens and a very large turkey. I feel bad for keeping them confined, i bring grass and greens in several times a day, and they do still find bugs. I'm just worried about their happiness. Is there a way i can let them free range without the risk? They are only three months old so I thought I'd wait until next summer when they're bigger for this project. I'm keeping the same area for the winter, since i live in Wisconsin, I'm worried about them free ranging in the winter.
