Scruffyfeathers
In the Brooder
Hey Centrarcid.
I have enough land to keep dogs and birds separate. That is not a problem. With regards to Lobo jumping his pen, he has always done that but at the same time never left our property. Keeping this in mind, I will have my chickens secured in an area where Lobo can not easily access. When I said that I trust Scruffy and Hatchi to mind the roost, it is based on their demeanor and that is not to say that I felt Lobo would be a threat. I have a lot of land and keeping my chickens, dogs and family in "safe" areas is really not a concern at this point. This is a learning experience for me for sure but the primary "concern" will be the welfare of all my stock albeit dogs or chickens. I do have a lot to learn but I am not so foolish to think that "Kumbaya" will be the anthem of my venture. I understand that you don't know me from Adam's house cat and have some valid concerns: trust me, I do think things through or research the "unknown" before I decide to make a specific decision.
Thank you for your input and please follow me and feel free to make suggestions in the event you suspect I am making an error. There is no doubt in my mind that I can use some help.
