Thanks for the advise to my problem. I will start locking them up at night. They do go in the coop every day to lay eggs. My neighbor just got a couple of roosters.

My chickens are about one year old. I built a real nice coop and run when I got them at around 5 months. They seemed to enjoy both for about a month when I was keeping them locked up. They would go in the coop at night and stay in the run all day. One day I decided to let them out in the yard...

Quote: Not sure why they are not using the perch. I use 2 x 4's so my chickens can have a flat surface and they love it. I know this sounds crazy but have you tried raising the roost to a higher height. I know they are not roosting at 2 feet on their own, so why would they want to roost...

I have had two chickens for a couple of months now and they still will not sleep on their pertch in the coop. They are about six months old now. Just started laying a week or so ago. I have gotten in there three nights in a row and placed them up on the pertch and they roost all night. I can...

I got a couple chickens a month ago and they love their new home. I built them a nice coop and run but during the day they want to roam the yard and under the pier house. I gave up trying to keep them in the run. They seem miserable. The yard is closed off with a chain link fence. Once they go...
