Thanks for the answers. I asked because we usually let ours out to free range in our fenced side and back yards all day. I go out and call them, and they come running to wherever I am or follow me to the run to get the handful of bird seed that I have for them. In fact, I was walking to the run just now to get a handful from the plastic container that I keep it in when I heard the hens' low growling sound. I turned around, and there they and the rooster were about six inches from my heels. They marched into the run before I even had a chance to get the bird seed. I can lock them up in the run any time I choose; they'll do anything for bird seeds.
