I can just see it. I only have the two coops and runs, but once in a while someone gets in the wrong run, and when that happens, the residents (usually the roo/cockerel in charge) run off the intruder. They free range in the yard together without incident, but home is home, I guess.sharol I just found out my tiny little bantam Cochin hen is sitting on eggs in the doghouse, eeek! I can't let her keep them so now I'm going to have to dig them out of there & make her mad. I will not be in any shape right now to take care of chicks, really bad timing. Speaking of the bantams, yesterday I went into their pen to feed them & with that pen being right next to the main coop at times the other hens will sneak in with me. Well one did yesterday & these hens are at least double if not more the size of the rooster in there. He saw that hen & he puffed up his chest & went after her like you don't belong here get out, it was so funny I had to chuckle. She did turn around & head out the door of the pen.
It's really cold out there today so I'm glad I got most of the water changed out yesterday. I'm actually feeling worse today but it may be because I overdid it. I did all the water, feeding, & then came in & totally changed things around in my entry/mudroom area. I was really tired out by the time I got that all done. I may have to take it easier today so I can get well. I sure don't want to get worse now.
Take care of yourself. This temperature is brutal here. We were at 1 degree at 6 a.m. this morning. It is up to a blistering 11 now. At least the sun is out there helping keep some spots out of the wind a bit more comfortable.
