I recently got five chickens and have them penned up. A long time ago a lady in the neighborhood had chickens and they frequently were let loose. She is no longer there but there are feral chickens now that come and go. It upsets me because often roaming dogs will come through and kill hens and babies. A rooster with his hen and one chick have started coming around lately. Can I maybe build a coop to encourage them and eventually pen them up at night? They just don't last long on their own.
