We have a chicken coop in our garden for our 8 weeks-ish old chickens and we let them out quite a lot, but they never want to get back in. Sometimes they even run behind the tiny gap between the coop and the fence, and theres no way to get them out. Normally I use a spade to get them out but we went to the beach so the spade was still in the car, so I used the broom. The chickens literally went mad... I finally got them back in the coop but when I was inside I noticed they were making a LOT of noise so I went out to check, and they were literally clawing at the chicken wire of the coop trying to escape, and I found I had left the broom behind the coop. They were trying to escape from the broom?! Is this normal?
