I have and maybe I will someday, but they love to free range in the front yard and she does it there too with the same effect on me. As long as they're quiet I don't care if they hang out under the porch. It's a safe place close to where they free range and it gives them shelter when it rains.
She free ranges all day, so not in a coop. The problem is that she does it while congregating with the others under my front porch (which I have no problem with) and I have to listen to that for unending periods.
Is there a way to stop a hen from crabing all of the time besides culling? I have one that is constantly squawking. It drives me crazy.
