    Why do my chickens dine on dandelions?

    My NH Reds go nuts for kale ! Only 3 of the 8 will come out of the coop though....3 months old...should I stop providing water inside the coop ?

    How to get 9week olds NH Reds to leave the coop and enter the pen.

    4 weeks in the coop which is inside the pen. Any thought on how to teach them how to use the ramp?

    How to get 9week olds NH Reds to leave the coop and enter the pen.

    Don’t want to keep their waterer in the coop but they won’t exit via the trapdoor and ramp! They will however exit via the egg box door but I want them to see the egg boxes as places to lay eggs, not use as exits. Any ideas?

    Neighbors yard

    No argument on the the civil rights point! Just looking for advice on the most efficient way to keep my chickens out of a particular area - Free ranging - except for her yard. If fencing is the only way to do that, so be it.

    Neighbors yard

    Three out of 4 neighbors donot mind my 5 free-ranging Wyandottes....but the 4th doesn’t want them on her property. Is there such a thing as a solar powered motion sensing repellor device to keep them out of her yard ?
