    Chickens Acting Weird at Sunset

    Hey everyone, I got 2 pullets about a week ago and every night around sunset I go out to put them to bed and they're acting weird. They peck at the metal wire around the run and windows, start making a lot of noise, and even jump up on the windows and metal wire as if they're trying to get...
