Late at night around 10:00 or so all the other chickens are in the coop, except for 1, she stays out until I come to put her in the coop. She has been doing this for the last week, and it's keeping me from putting an automatic door on. Why is she doing this? By the way - she is 3 years old and...

I want to make it where my silky chickens cannot get onto the patio and stay only in the grass (because they make a mess on the patio). My dream is to have them stay in the courtyard grass with a nice (no run) coop and they will free range out there. So I am asking for any possible suggestions...

We have 4 Silky hens, our backyard is one acre and we have a fence around our backyard but we are afraid that they are gonna fit through it. So we are going to move thier coop back there, So will we have to put fencing around our coop? We don't have run, as they are free ranged.
