Hello,
Just wondering as to how to resolve a slight issue with neighbors free range chickens. Not at all wanting to start a war between the neighbors. The chickens have now decided our property is where they prefer to roam. We are now blessed with chicken poop on our concrete slab outside our front door. The chickens came across the paved road and started scratching in the needles of our mature pine trees. That was no problem. Now they must feel really comfortable because they've taken to circling our entire house and messing in my hosta beds and mulch in our landscaping. Is there anyway to get them more interested in going back to their home across the road? Traffic has literally stopped for them to cross. These are beautiful birds...but if we wanted our own chickens we would buy some. My husband is a farmer. His mom had chickens while he was growing up. I was raised on a farm. My mom had chickens...that were kept in a large fenced pasture with peacocks and shut in the barn at night. Any helpful suggestions.
