I have 8 young, 10 week old chickens. They are outside in an enclosed yard 12 metres x 3 metres. No matter how quiet I try to be, they always know when I’m opening the gate and run to meet me. I have to open the gate and squeeze in such a way as to ensure a. they don’t get struck by the gate and b. so they don’t run out or slip by me. Once I’m in, they crowd around my feet and it is hard to walk! Yesterday I stepped on someone’s foot. My only way in and out is to throw treats away from myself to distract them. I’m feeling the love but would like a solution too. Any ideas on how I can manage this? Thanks.
