I have read so many awful stories on here about neighbours, that I'd thought I'd share a good one. Before anyone flames me, I am trying to keep my chickens on my property. I watch them as closely as I can, and steps are being taken to set up fencing. But I am having a short term problem keeping them home.
Short story: I've been sick with worry over my chickens straying to my neighbours' property, and guiding them back if I catch them there. This isn't I neighbour I know yet (I know...BAD neighbour!). Turns out...he likes having them there!
Not a long-term solution, but a great relief.
