    I am trying to set up a small flock of hens (6 or less) in our Midwestern city, but I have a concerned neighbor. We want to have the run be a dog kennel with an opening into a hen house in our garage. We’ll dig chicken wire into the ground around the coop as extra protection. My neighbor has...
