Keeping chickens off the porch/deck/patio?

[macmac955]

Alright, so I have 7 chickens and 2 Guinea fowl, and they all end up on the porch/deck/patio in the 2 seconds I’m not watching them. Any ideas on how to keep them away from the porch?

Fences would restrict them from invading areas they are not wanted.

Fences.
I'm still trying to keep mine from coming in if they see the screen door ajar...

Give them a roost. If your porch is shaded, put the roost in the shade. You might have to pick them up and set them on the roost.
